74. Mr. T. THOMSONasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if a soldier who was demobilised before 5th April, 1919, is less favourably treated as regards abatement allowance on Income Tax than one who was demobilised after that date; and, if so, whether he can see his way to extend to the former the abatement of £160 for the first year after demobilisation granted to the latter?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI would refer the hon. Member to the answer given on the 29th instant to the hon. Member for Morpeth in reply to a similar question. I am sending the hon. Member a copy.
