HC Deb 17 February 1873 vol 214 c540
MR. CADOGAN

asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether notice has been issued by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue to persons assessed for Income Tax, to the effect that the Law admits of appeal to Special Commissioners at the Inland Revenue Office, instead of to the general Commissioners; and, if so, whether he is aware that in several cases the District Commissioners and their clerks under them have refused to issue these notices, or have substituted other notices in which no mention of the appeal to the Special Commissioners had been made?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER,

in reply, said, that the facts were as stated by the hon. Member. He might mention that it was his intention to introduce into the Customs and Inland Revenue Bill for this year a clause making it obligatory on those persons to issue the notices sent to them by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue.
