§ Sir K. WOODasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider the advisability of appointing a 1121W committee to consider how far the present incidence of taxation can be altered so as to remove, as far as possible, the burden at present placed on enterprise, re-equipment, and development?
§ Mr. P. SNOWDENNo, Sir. The general question of the effect of taxation on trade and industry was considered by Lord Colwyn's Committee on National Debt and Taxation, and I do not propose to set up another committee.
