HC Deb 27 February 1968 vol 759 cc306-7W
99. Mr. John Page

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he will consider legislation to make it necessary for all dealings over £200 to be paid for by cheque or bankers' order, so that large dealings in cash are properly accountable for tax purposes.

Mr. Harold Lever

No. I do not think that such a rule could be enforced, and, even if it could, it would be unlikely to deter the tax evader.
