HC Deb 09 June 1947 vol 438 c75W
Sir A. Herbert

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the yield of entertainments duty from the living stage in the last financial year, or in any other convenient period; and what proportion it bore to the total yield of Entertainments Duty.

Mr. Dalton

Approximately £5½ millions in the financial year 1946–47; that is to say about 10 per cent. of the total yield of the Entertainments Duty in that year.
