HC Deb 25 April 1890 vol 343 c1417
MR. JOHN KELLY (Camberwell, N.)

I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in drafting the Bill embodying the great concessions which he has made in the matter of the incidence of the Inhabited House Duty, he will consider the present position, in reference to this tax, of professional men and others, particularly those keeping schools, who have no option but to pay rents out of all proportion to their means and to their requirements as private persons, with a view of giving them at least the same relief as he proposes to give to the keepers of lodging houses?

*MR. GOSCHEN

I am not prepared to open any further questions this year with regard to remissions in the House Duty.
