HC Deb 20 October 1953 vol 518 cc249-50W
Mr. Wheatley

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he has considered a communication from the secretary of the Scottish Football Association on the unfair incidence of entertainment tax on some outdoor sports, and, in particular, association football; and what is the nature of his reply thereto.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

Yes. My right hon. Friend has informed the Association that their representations will be borne in mind in connection with the undertaking that he gave during the debates on the Finance Bill to watch the incidence of the duty on football in the present season.
