Mr. Teddy Taylor

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make a statement on the extent to which Her Majesty's Government are committed to seeking the harmonisation of value added tax levies and rules in consequence of their Common Market obligations.

Mr. Hayhoe

The Government accept as binding those EC obligations relating to value added tax which are currently in force; proposals of the Commission for further harmonisation are considered on their merits.
