§ 27. Sir W. Bromley-Davenportasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what consideration he has given to a recent case, details of which have been sent to him, in which a motor car retailer was obliged to fill in 42 forms before he could fill an export order for a Ugandan subject who wished to order a British car to take back with him to Uganda; and whether, with a view to encouraging motor car exports, he will arrange to simplify this procedure.
§ Mr. MacDermotThere is no foundation for the suggestion that has been made that this number of forms is required in order to secure exemption from Purchase Tax. Apart from the application form and a form to be certified by Customs when the car is actually exported, only two commercial forms are needed to comply with the Purchase Tax requirements.
