EXCESS PROFITS DUTY (COTTON INDUSTRY).

HC Deb 30 July 1935 vol 304 c2484

51. Mr. SUTCLIFFE (for Mr. CHORLTON)

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the total amount actually paid by way of excess profits duty by the Lancashire cotton trade and the total amount which would have been paid by that trade as excess profits duty but for the fact that allowance was made as a set-off against subsequent losses?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I regret that the information asked for by my hon. Friend is not available.
