HC Deb 02 February 1983 vol 36 c106W
Mr. Tony Speller

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how much revenue per annum is obtained from the £12.50 fee for a five-year licence on beam-controlled doors; what is the estimated cost of collection; and if he will consider abolishing this licence.

Mr. Mellor

This information is not readily available and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost. The exemption of low-powered radio devices, including those for opening doors, is already under consideration.
