§ Mr. Alfred Morrisasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the estimated increase in revenue in a full financial year (a) in total and (b) derived from registered disabled people as a result of raising value added tax from 8 to 15 per cent.
§ Mr. Peter ReesFor an estimate of the total increase in revenue in a full financial year as a result of raising value added tax in the June 1979 Budget I refer the hon. Member to the 1979–80 Financial Statement and Budget Report. It is not possible to calculate the additional revenue derived from registered disabled people because their expenditure is not known.
