HC Deb 18 November 1974 vol 881 c303W
Mr. Peter Rees

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he proposes to honour his assurance on 9th May 1974 to the House that repairs to churches and to church buildings would be zero-rated for VAT purposes.

Dr. Gilbert

I regret that the speech —[Vol. 873, c. 731]—to which the hon. and learned Member refers was misreported. I actually said that "we feel unable to accede to these representations". The error is being corrected in the bound volumes of HANSARD.
