HC Deb 16 June 1965 vol 714 cc81-2W
75. Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in considering differential rates for vehicle licence duties, he will give due weight to the influence of these duties on design and thus on the ability to compete abroad; and if he will consult the motor industry before reaching a decision.

Mr. MacDermot

My right hon. Friend will certainly give due weight to the possible influence of these duties on design and will bear in mind the suggestion for consultation with the industry.
