HC Deb 25 October 1920 vol 133 cc1392-3W
Sir J. D. REES

asked the Prime Minister whether he will consider the advisability of suspending the operation or further operation of Acts passed during and after the War which necessitate large expenditure, in view of the heavy burden of rates and taxes already resting upon the British citizen?

The PRIME MINISTER

As I have already said, in answer to previous questions, the Government are not prepared to adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion.
