76. Sir Joseph Lamb

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the total amount of revenue raised during the last financial year for which figures are available, by means of Customs and Excise Duties upon foodstuffs of the same description as those produced in the British Isles?

Mr. Chamberlain

It is difficult to give a firm figure, but the answer is approximately £28,000,000 for the year ended 31st March, 1936.
