HC Deb 02 June 1933 vol 278 c2242W
Captain ERSKINE-B0LST

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether his latest advices indicate that the brewers are carrying out the promised increase in the specific gravity of beer?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

My hon. and gallant Friend will recollect that the Budget announcement was made when only four working days of the month of April remained. Official figures for May are not yet available.
