HC Deb 08 August 1919 vol 119 c737W
Mr. JAMESON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is in a position to give an assurance that down to this date nothing has been done to commit the country to the policy of establishing a new system of royalties upon oil, and that nothing will be done in this direction during the Recess?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The answer is in the affirmative.
