§ Major ANSTRUTHER-GRAYasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the rapid increase of motor traffic and the consequent discouragement to the horse-drawn traffic, he will consider the advisability of remitting some part of the Hackney Carriage Tax, so far as it affects horse hackney carriages, so as to mitigate the distress that threatens cabdrivers, through no fault of their own, besides encouraging the preservation of a horse supply that would prove invaluable in case of war?
§ Mr. LLOYD-GEORGEMy right hon. Friend will doubtless consider the hon. and gallant Member's suggestion.
