Fire Insurance Duty Reform Effort Gathers Support in Parliament
The Association for the Abolition or Reduction of the Duty on Fire Insurance reports gains from Chancellor of the Exchequer Budget changes aiming to cut the duty on stock-in-trade and utensils to 1s 6d while keeping private property at 3s. The group argues a uniform repeal is fair and plans continued pressure, naming numerous M P s, insurers, and city chambers of commerce backing the cause.
