HC Deb 06 May 1993 vol 224 cc186-7W
Sir Michael Neubert

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what representations he has received on the level of the qualifying turnover for VAT since his Budget statement.

Sir John Cope

The few representations that have been received are divided between those who would like to see the threshold raised significantly in order to exclude many more businesses from the tax and those who seek a much lower or nil threshold in order to minimise what they see as unfair competition for registered traders from those who are not registered.
