HC Deb 01 May 1919 vol 115 cc377-8W
Mr. HIGHAML

asked the President of the Board of Trade when the Government proposes to abolish the present 6d. per gallon war tax on petrol, and why petrol has not been placed on the non-restriction list of the Board of Trade?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I would refer the hon. Member to the statement made yesterday by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and to the reply given by him to my hon. Friend the Member for Twickenham.
