HC Deb 03 February 1955 vol 536 c132W
35. Brigadier Clarke

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer to consider in his next Budget the abolition of Purchase Tax on all non-luxury articles.

Mr. H. Brooke

The question of what is a luxury is so much a matter of personal opinion that my right hon. Friend would have difficulty in complying with my hon. and gallant Friend's request.
