Mr. J. Enoch Powellasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer on how many motor vehicles, by category, special car tax was collected on entry into the United Kingdom by land in each of the last six months for which such figures are available.
§ Sir Geoffrey HoweThe figures are as follows:
October 1981 5 November 1981 35 December 1981 9 January 1982 31 February 1982 88 March 1982 442 I regret that records of car tax payments at the place of importation do not distinguish between different categories of vehicles, for example, "new" or "used" or on the basis of country of manufacture.
