HC Deb 30 March 1995 vol 257 c720W
24. Mr. Gunnell

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is his estimate of the income in 1995–96 from the tax on fruit machines and other game machines in public houses; and if this estimate takes into account the withdrawal of some machines as a result of his proposals. [15299]

Mr. Heathcoat-Amory

The 1995–96 forecast for all betting and gaming duties in the "Financial Statement and Budget Report" is £1.2 billion. This figure takes account of policy measures announced in the Budget; there are no separate forecasts for the different duties.
