Finance Bill — Stamp duty on conveyance or transfer on sale — 28 Apr 1999

Peter Viggers MP, Gosport voted in the minority (Aye).

Clause 28 ordered to stand part of the Bill.

I beg to move amendment No. 3, in clause 99, page 71, line 5, at end insert--

'(4A) This section shall not apply to properties which are subject to uniform business rate'.

In fact, the increases had far less to do with stability in the housing market than with increasing tax revenue.

Question put, That the amendment be made:--

The Committee divided: Ayes 126, Noes 308.
