HC Deb 15 December 1970 vol 808 cc281-2W
68. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer on what date he or his representatives met a deputation from the racing industries to discuss gaming, racing and taxation laws; who was included in the deputation; what was the object of their visit; and what action he has decided to take resulting from the same.

Mr. Higgins

I received a deputation led by the right hon. the Lord Wigg on 23rd November about the general betting duty. I cannot usefully add to the Press notices then issued, of which I am sending copies to the hon. Member.
