HC Deb 28 July 1938 vol 338 c3316W
Sir T. Cook

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury how much duty has been paid on imported fertilisers and their ingredients since 1931?

Captain Wallace

The total amount of duty collected on goods classified in the trade returns as fertilisers from the 1st March, 1932, the date of the coming into force of the general tariff, to the 31st March, 1938, was £184,000. It is not possible to give particulars of the total amount of duty paid on goods capable of use as fertilisers which are included under other headings in the trade returns.
