[press association.] (Received March 9, 10.45 p.m.) V LONDON, March 9. Replying to questions in the House of Commons, Mr Lloyd-George stated that the loss of revenue due to the rejection of the Budget was approximately £28,500,000. It was impossilbe to say at present how much would ultimately be recovered. Lord Hugh Cecil, amidst Unionist cheers, asked what would have been saved if a temporary Bill, continuing existing taxes, had been passed -before dissolution, and an income tax resolution agreed to immediately the new Parliament met.
