HC Deb 05 May 1927 vol 205 c1779W
Colonel BURTON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it was with his sanction that the Commissioners of Inland Revenue took such action as caused the Rayon Artificial Silk Company, Limited, to go into liquidation?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I am not aware of the causes which led to the liquidation of this company, but the information available does not support the suggestion that the liquidation was due to the action which the Commissioners of Customs and Excise found it necessary to take to safeguard the interests of the Revenue.
