HC Deb 17 January 1968 vol 756 c648W
Mr. Hooson

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) if he will provide any tax incentives similar to those now in force in the Republic of Ireland, with a view to encouraging the development of the non-ferrous mining industry in the United Kingdom;

(2) if he has any plans to liberalise and reform the current tax laws on nonferrous mining in such a way as to encourage non-ferrous mining in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Harold Lever:

I have nothing to add to what was said during the debate on last year's Finance Bill.—[Vol. 748, cols. 852–882.]
