Opticians And VAT

EDM number 1083 in 1994-95, proposed by Michael J Martin on 03/05/1995.

That this House is deeply concerned that opticians will receive a multi-million pound rebate on VAT; understands that opticians have no intention of passing this rebate on to their customers who paid the VAT in the first place; and therefore urges the Treasury to insist that the customers get the benefit of this windfall.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
