HC Deb 07 May 1946 vol 422 c68W
65. Captain Bullock

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will consider legalising betting with a view to the introduction of a betting tax; and if he can give an estimate as to how much such a tax would produce.

Mr. Dalton:

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to my reply to the hon. Member for Oxford University (Sir A. Herbert) on 6th March.
