HC Deb 07 March 1972 vol 832 c269W
25. Mr. Farr

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will extend to the rest of the country the facility now available to companies in development areas allowing capital allowance to be set off against profits of the previous three years if current year profits are inadequate.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

I have noted my hon. Friend's suggestion, but I am sure that he will not expect me to anticipate the Budget Statement.
