HC Deb 22 November 2001 vol 375 c469W
Mr. Flight

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what discussions he has had with EU Finance Ministers in relation to the impact of respective national taxes on share dealings on the development of the single market in financial services. [15919]

Dawn Primarolo

The Chancellor discusses a wide range of issues with other European Finance Ministers, but he has had no recent discussions with them on the issue of national taxes on share dealings, which are of course a matter for national Governments.
