HC Deb 17 March 1939 vol 345 c788W
Sir W. Jenkins

asked the Minister of Health, what is the average amount paid in rates to local authorities per ton produced from all industries in Glamorgan, and what is the total sum paid in cash upon their rateable value?

Mr. Elliot

The returns made to my Department do not show separately the amount of rates in respect of the various classes of hereditaments, but it is estimated that the rates paid by the occupiers of industrial hereditaments in the administrative county of Glamorgan amounted to about £200,000 in 1937–38. The particulars asked for in the first part of the Question are not available.
