HC Deb 26 October 1911 vol 30 cc295-6
Mr. WATT

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether his Department permits as a deduction in paying Income Tax premiums paid for fidelity insurance in cases where such insurance is a condition precedent to the earning of the income?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

When an employé is obliged by the terms of his appointment to pay a premium for fidelity insurance the Board of Inland Revenue would not object to the allowance of a deduction of the amount of the premium in determining the Income Tax liability.
