HC Deb 19 February 1963 vol 672 c43W
105. Sir G. Nabarro

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will give an assurance that the introduction of the Purchase Tax Consolidation Bill does not indicate that he has concluded his main reforms in this field of taxation.

Mr. du Cann

The object of a Consolidation Bill is to consolidate the existing law on a subject, and the introduction of such a Bill has no bearing either way on the possibility of future legislation on that subject.
