HC Deb 05 March 1924 vol 170 c1418W
Mr. HANNON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can give information as to the average retail price per pint of beer most largely consumed by the working classes in the cities of London, Paris, Berlin, Brussels, the Hague, and Copenhagen, or any of them, and the percentage of those prices which is absorbed by taxation of those beverages?

Mr. SNOWDEN

Inquiries are being made, and I will inform the hon. Member of the result in due course.
