HC Deb 03 March 1919 vol 113 c45W
Major NALL

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that Entertainments Tax is charged on the subscriptions of county cricket clubs; and if he will issue instructions for these subscriptions to be treated on the same basis as those to other social or political clubs?

Mr. BALDWIN

Entertainments Tax is chargeable, under Section 1 (4) of the Finance (Now Duties) Act, 1916, on subscriptions paid to any club, association, or society, in so far as such subscriptions confer the right of admission to taxable entertainments.
