HC Deb 03 December 1963 vol 685 c141W
13. Mr. K. Lewis

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer on what grounds the expenditure on trading stamps given free to the consumer by limited companies is allowed as a legitimate business expense.

Mr. Green

The cost of trading stamps given free to customers by a trader is normally an expense incurred for the purposes of the trade and as such deductible in computing the profits for tax purposes.
