HC Deb 23 October 1946 vol 427 cc398-9W
Mr. Skeffington-Lodge

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies why it has been decided to impose a duty on N.A.A.F.I. goods sold to His Majesty's Forces in Hong Kong; and whether he will reconsider this step in view of the extra cost of supplies to our troops resulting from this tax.

Mr. Creech Jones

I am awaiting a reply from the Governor and will write to the hon. Member later.
