HC Deb 17 December 1968 vol 775 c329W
68. Mr. Brewis

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what rate of Customs Duty is payable on imports from foreign sources of reflective material suitable for children's arm-bands; what is the average delay in clearing such material through customs; and what has been the maximum delay on any consignment since June, 1968.

Mr. Taverne

The rate of duty varies according to the nature of the material. I am not aware of any delays in Customs clearance where the material has been promptly and correctly entered with the Customs.
