§ MR. ELLIS DAVIES (Carnarvonshire, Eifion)To ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can see his way to arrange that in future the figures relating to income-lax and death duties issued by his Department shall be given for Wales and Monmouth separately from England.
(Answered by Mr. Lloyd-George.) It is not possible under existing arrangements to separate the figures relating 1381 to income-tax and death-duties for Wales and Monmouth and for England respectively. Several of the collecting areas, such as Chester, Hereford, and Shrewsbury, include districts on both sides of the border, and, moreover, the duties are not necessarily paid locally, but are in many cases collected in London.
