In the course of the debate on the Finance Bill in the House of Commons, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Winston Churchill, admitted that the betting tax could not be worked smoothly, and that the result was disappointing. Evasion of the tax was widespread. Mr. Churchill prophesied the early adoption of the totalisator. Then, he said, it might be possible to reconsider the betting tax. He hinted that it might be changed from a tax on the turnover to a licence duty.
