HC Deb 13 March 1970 vol 797 c395W
Mr. William Price

asked the Lord President of the Council what was the cost of providing snuff for Members in the last financial year.

Mr. Pearl

£6 7s. 6d. in the year 1968–69.

Mr. Ogden

asked the Lord President of the Council if in order to maintain one of the older traditions of the House at no cost to the Exchequer, he will accept the offer, details of which have been given to him by the hon. Member for Liverpool, West Derby, for the supply of snuff to the House of Commons.

Mr. Peart

I hope it will be possible for the House to accept this kind offer, subject, of course, to the usual conditions concerning advertising.
