HC Deb 17 June 1924 vol 174 cc1955-6W
Mr. D. G. SOMERVILLE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he has reached any arrangement with the entertainment industry as to the precise means of relieving the burden of the Entertainments Duty over and above the 6d. seats by means of the extra sum available for that purpose; and, if so, what that arrangement is, or what suggestions have been made by the industry to that effect?

Mr. SNOWDEN

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative; the second part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
