HC Deb 04 May 1914 vol 62 c87

Now I come to the Super-tax.

Mr. CROOKS

Oh!

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I take note at once of the dismay on the face of my hon. Friend the Member for Woolwich. I propose that the Super-tax limit should be lowered from £5,000 to £3,000. I propose that the first £2,500 should be exempted, and that you should charge 5d. on the next £500. The first £2,500 is exempt.
