HC Deb 29 April 1968 vol 763 cc126-7W
Mr. Munro

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer why he has not included the Langholm and Annan areas of Dumfriesshire amongst those which will receive the repayment of Selective Employment Tax for hotels and boarding houses.

Mr. Diamond

As my right hon. Friend explained when moving the Second Reading of the Finance Bill on 24th April, he does not propose to include the more industrial parts of development areas.—[Vol. 763, c. 254.]

Mrs. Ewing

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will take steps to exempt all those engaged in providing sleeping accommodation for tourists in Scotland from Selective Employment Tax.

Mr. Diamond

No.
