HC Deb 16 November 1977 vol 939 c273W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will take steps to refuse tax deductibility for expenses incurred in the promotion of tobacco products in line with the information sent to him by the hon. Member for Brent, South.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

I have noted the hon. Member's suggestion but I consider that this is a matter where the normal taxation rules should apply.
