HC Deb 03 February 1983 vol 36 c173W
Mr. Race

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what representations he has received concerning the effects of value added tax on Football Association clubs; if he will consider reducing, as a matter of urgency, the rate of value added tax on such clubs; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

Twelve representations have been received about VAT on admission charges to football matches. My right hon. and learned Friend will bear these in mind in preparing his Budget.
