HC Deb 05 July 1915 vol 73 c43W
Mr. DUNCAN MILLAR

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, having regard to the depreciation in securities due to the issue of the new War Loan, he will consider as to introducing some scheme which will avoid the loss incurred where trustees have to realise securities for the purpose of meeting Death Duties?

Mr. McKENNA

I am carefully considering the position created in connection with Death Duties, by reason of certain securities not being readily saleable at the existing minimum prices.
