HC Deb 29 April 1948 vol 450 c608
66. Mr. Turton

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether motorists, of whom it is certified that they have delivered up unused all coupons except standard ration coupons, will be entitled to reclaim half the licence duty they have already paid in respect of their motor vehicles.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

On or after 1st June, motorists in such circumstances will be able to exchange their full rate licence for one at half-rate. Refund in respect of any unexpired currency of the full rate licence will be payable in the usual way.

Mr. Turton

Will the Finance Bill be amended to make that clear?

Mr. Glenvil Hall

I understand that the Finance Bill does make that clear, but perhaps we can discuss that when we come to the Finance Bill.
