HC Deb 22 June 1943 vol 390 cc1020-1W
Sir C. Edwards

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that 100 per cent. Purchase Tax is charged to the Sunday School Union on Bible pic- tures, illuminated scripture text cards, etc., whilst the tax is not charged to the National Association; and will he take steps to secure that both bodies shall be treated alike and the tax applied equitably?

Sir K. Wood

There is no disparity of treatment between these two bodies: supplies for both are taxed on the same basis.
