§ 25. Sir R. THOMASasked the Prime Minister whether, having regard to the fact that the salary of a High Court Judge, after deduction of Income Tax and Super-tax, is only about £3,000, it is the intention of the Government to increase such salary?
§ Sir E. POLLOCKThe matter is still under consideration.
§ Sir R. THOMASIs it not time the matter should really be decided? It has been under consideration for a very long time.
§ Sir F. FLANNERYIs there any sound reason why Judges of the High Court have their Income Tax and Super-tax paid by the State any more than the Income Tax and Super-tax of other officials?
