HC Deb 15 November 1945 vol 415 c2512W
Major Wyatt

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, in view of the fact that washing machines, which normally include wringers, are to be free of Purchase Tax, he will consider removing the Purchase Tax from wringers sold separately.

Mr. Dalton

No, Sir. Washing machines, whether or not incorporating wringers, are not exempt from Purchase Tax.
