HC Deb 10 May 1956 vol 552 c1399

The following Question stood upon the Order Paper:

19. Mr. HAROLD WILSON

To ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the devotion of company profits to trust funds for the purpose of making grants in respect of the education of children of employees at private fee-paying schools are accepted by the Board of Inland Revenue as wholly and exclusively incurred for the purposes of the trade concerned and thus admissible as exempt expenses for tax purposes.

Mr. H. Wilson

On a point of order. I gave notice to the Table Office that, in view of the Answer given to my hon. Friend the Member for Edmonton (Mr. Albu) last week, I was withdrawing this Question, but, by some oversight, it seems to have been printed.
