§ MR. HUBBARDsaid, he would beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether he proposes to re-enact the Income Tax as it stood at the close of 1863, or whether he proposes any, and, if any, what change in its provisions?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUERsaid, in reply, that Government had no intention whatever of making any material change in the provisions of the Income Tax Act. A point of some consequence was raised last year relating to Railway Companies; but it had since been settled by the Courts of Law. He was not aware of any other point requiring legislation.
