HC Deb 09 June 1884 vol 288 c1776
MR. STEWART MACLIVER

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, If his attention has been called to complaints from various towns of the Income Tax Surveyors having surcharged residents who, on previous occasions, had proved by appeal the accuracy of their returns; and, whether he will discourage such exercise of authority?

MR. COURTNEY

I have heard nothing of any such complaints; and they are not known at the Inland Revenue Board; but if any be made they will be duly considered, so far as the law allows any appeal from the decisions of the unofficial local Commissioners.
