60. Mr. Erroll

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will now exempt from Purchase Tax instantaneous water heaters, suitable for operation with bottled gas.

The Economic Secretary to the Treasury (Mr. Douglas Jay)

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer my right hon. and learned Friend gave to his similar Question on 25th October.

Mr. Erroll

In view of the delay, can the hon. Gentleman say when a decision will be reached?

Mr. Jay

As soon as possible.
