Written answers and statements, 16 June 2009
Malcolm Moss (North East Cambridgeshire, Conservative)
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what discussions his Department has had with the Department for Culture, Media and Sport on the introduction of a gross profit tax to replace amusement machine licence duty system; and if he will make a statement.
Kitty Ussher (Parliamentary Secretary, HM Treasury; Burnley, Labour)
Treasury Ministers and officials meet with a wide range of organisations and individuals in the public and private sectors as part of the usual policymaking process. As was the case with previous Administrations, it is not the Government's practice to provide details of all such discussions.
