HC Deb 04 April 1927 vol 204 cc1719-20W
Mr. LOOKER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware of the

1926 as returned by occupiers, and the decreases between these two dates are as follow:

extent of the grievance which is felt owing to the high price of beer; and can he hold out any hopes of a reduction at an early date?

Mr. McNEILL

My right hon. Friend has recently received representations on the subject of the beer duty, but my hon. Friend will not expect him to anticipate the Budget statement.
