HC Deb 20 November 1912 vol 44 c285
43. Colonel BURN

asked whether persons serving on grand juries or petty juries at Assizes and Quarter Sessions, and also members of the county council, are allowed, when making their Income Tax returns, to deduct, as a business charge, their expenses incurred while performing such duties?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

The answer is in the negative.

Colonel BURN

Will the right hon. Gentleman take this matter into consideration, since Members of this House are allowed to claim an abatement upon one quarter of their salaries?

Mr. SPEAKER

That does not arise.
