HC Deb 20 May 1909 vol 5 c568
Mr. CHIOZZA MONEY

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if his attention has been directed to the fact that the proposals for an unearned increment tax now before the German Reichstag are not confined to land, but include the question of the unearned increment attaching to personal property; and whether he will consider the propriety of widening his own proposals as to the taxation of unearned increment to secure equal treatment of all property owners?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

My hon. Friend's suggestion has been brought to the notice of my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Captain CRAIG

May I ask if all our legislation is to be based on German legislation?
