HC Deb 08 December 1949 vol 470 c165W
Mr. Mitchison

asked the President of the Board of Trade what are the actual or estimated figures of the values of footwear subject to Purchase Tax, at 33⅓ per cent. and at 100 per cent., sold during this year or any part of it.

Mr. H. Wilson:

No figures are available giving the turnover of footwear subject to Purchase Tax, nor is there sufficient information to enable a reliable estimate to be made.
