HC Deb 01 December 1930 vol 245 c1819W
Mr. TINKER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the profits made by brewers from 1911 to the latest date of which he has the figures; and what percentage this represents on the invested capital?

Mr. P. SNOWDEN

I am sending my hon. Friend copies of replies which were given to the Noble Lady the Member for the Sutton Division of Plymouth (Viscountess Astor) on 20th March and 5th May last that contain information regarding the amount of profits. I am not in a position to relate the amount of profit to the capital invested in the industry.
