Mr. James Davidson

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the total annual United Kingdom revenue from Customs and Excise duties and import tariffs ; and on what he bases the figures for current receipts against items 9 and 10 in the Treasury publication, "A Scottish Budget ".

Mr. Taverne

Net receipts of Customs and Excise duties in the financial year 1967–68, including those from protective duties, were £3,717 million. The basis of the figures for current receipts from Customs and Excise duties in the Treasury Report "A Scottish Budget "is described in the "Notes to Table A "in that report, a copy of which is in the Library.
