HC Deb 31 October 1994 vol 248 cc910-2W
Mr. Hinchliffe

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make a statement on the progress of the Inland Revenue's special investigations into Welsh Rugby Union; what tax has been recovered; what future arrangements have been made; and what similar inquiries have been made in England.

Sir George Young

[holding answer 28 October 1994]Rugby clubs are entitled to the same degree of confidentiality as any other taxpayers. It would not, therefore, be appropriate for me to comment any further.
