HC Deb 11 May 1948 vol 450 c188W
60. Mr. Piratin

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware of the widespread feeling that the bookmakers' tax should apply, in addition to those operating at greyhound tracks, to those operating at racecourse meetings; what consideration he has given to this matter; and why the general application of the tax is not being introduced.

Sir S. Cripps

I would refer the hon. Member to my Budget statement.
