HC Deb 01 July 1987 vol 118 c95W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what information he has of the effect on retailers of the delay arising from the break-down of the value added tax computer at Shoeburyness in the repayments of moneys due to them; if he will take steps to ensure the earliest possible repayment of such moneys; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Lawson

I shall let the right hon. Member have a reply as soon as possible.
