HC Deb 16 May 1980 vol 984 c671W
Mr. Dixon

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the complexity of the present regulations and the confusion that exists among those directly concerned, he will hold urgent discussions with a view to introducing a general exemption on value added tax on the purchase of any item which enables a registered handicapped person to lead a normal life.

Mr. Peter Rees

I will let the hon. Member have a reply as soon as possible.
