HC Deb 24 April 1917 vol 92 cc2236-7W
Mr. GRANT

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will take into consideration the inequalities of the present incidence of taxation of the Finance Act as applied to the rubber industry, with a view to redressing such inequalities by imposing a flat rate on all rubber-producing companies?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I have received representations on this matter, but as the hon. Member will appreciate, I am unable to anticipate the contents of the Finance Bill.
