HC Deb 15 February 1972 vol 831 cc57-8W
30. Mr. Skeet

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the fact that liquid petroleum gas engines compare favourably as regards toxic emissions with ordinary petrol engines and in certain respects with diesel engines, he will withdraw his plans for placing a tax on this gas.

Mr. Maurice Macmillan

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer I gave earlier today to my hon. Friend the Member for Luton (Mr. Simeons).
