HC Deb 12 October 1939 vol 352 c554W
Mr. Stuart Russell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it is proposed that Income Tax should be charged at the standard rate on the pay of officers on active service, or whether some remission, in accordance with the precedent of the last war, will be accorded?

Sir J. Simon

No, Sir. I do not see my way to propose any special relief from Income Tax in favour of the pay of officers on active service.
