HC Deb 25 May 1977 vol 932 c514W
Mr. Newton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) if he will state the conditions in which exemption from vehicle excise duty is granted to disabled people other than drivers of invalid three-wheelers; if he will estimate how many people benefit from this concession; and what loss of revenue is involved;

(2) if he will estimate the additional number of disabled persons who would benefit if current exemptions from vehicle excise duty were extended to all in receipt of mobility allowance and the loss of revenue which would be involved.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

I will let the hon. Member have a reply as soon as possible.
