§ SIR ALBERT ROLLIT (Islington, S.)I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, is he aware that many complaints are being made of the unusually stringent and peremptory demands being made by collectors of Income Tax; and is this being done with the knowledge and sanction of the Treasury?
§ * THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Sir MICHAEL HICKS BEACH,) Bristol, W.I have received no special complaint except with regard to the wording of the demand notes used this year in the collection of the Income Tax. These forms will, as I have already stated in this House, be withdrawn. I know of no unusual stringency in the collection of the tax this year, and I have not sanctioned anything of the kind.
