HC Deb 22 February 1982 vol 18 c285W
Mr. Heddle

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what has been the average time taken by the Development Land Tax Office to deal with applications for certificates of satisfaction under section 18 of the Development Land Tax Act since the Act came into force.

Mr. Ridley

The average time taken since the Act came into force is not readily available, but for applications received during the last six months it is approximately six weeks.
