§ 51. Lieut.-Colonel Sir Thomas Mooreasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will provide a list of those municipal authorities which at the present time have sought and obtained exemption from Entertainments Duty in respect of the theatrical and variety productions provided by them.
§ Mr. GaitskellI regret that this information is not available, and I do not think that the trouble and expense involved in obtaining it would be justified.
§ Sir T. MooreAccepting that, is the Chancellor satisfied that requests that are made by local authorities are invariably sympathetically received by his Department?
§ Mr. GaitskellCertainly. If the hon. and gallant Gentleman has any case in mind, perhaps he would let me know about it.
