HC Deb 18 April 1967 vol 745 c50W
35. Mr. Tilney

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the fact that bookmakers are only entitled to deduct 6d. in the £ sterling of stake money and not of winnings, he will introduce legislation to provide penalties for those bookmakers who do not comply with the law.

Mr. MacDermot

The hon. Member is misinformed: there is no such law on this point.
