Mr. ACLANDasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether in framing his Budget proposals, he will have regard to the promise of his predecessor in 1931 that the increased taxation on petrol would be removed as soon as conditions became normal or, alternatively, whether he will provide that a rather larger proportion than heretofore of the moneys collected from motorists shall be actually expended on road improvements?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on the 20th February, 1936, to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Wycombe (Sir A. Knox).
