HC Deb 15 November 1973 vol 864 c210W
28. Mr. Rose

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will reconsider the question of the imposition of value added tax on school trips and residential courses run by schools.

Mr. Higgins

I am not aware of any new considerations which would justify changing the present position.

Mr. Trew

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what would be the increase in revenue of increasing to 20 per cent. the rate of value added tax on jewellery, fur garments and fur headgear.

Mr. Higgins

About £10 million in a full year.
