HC Deb 05 April 1922 vol 152 cc2241-2
79. Sir GODFREY COLLINS

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the yield from the Income Tax for the financial years ending 31st March, 1921 and 1922, respectively, exclusive of Super-tax and Mineral Rights Duty?

Mr. YOUNG

The Exchequer receipt of Income Tax was £338,865,000 in 1920–21, and £337,027,000 in 1921–22.

Sir M. D0CKRELL

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that there is a statement in the public Press, over the name of a Noble Lord, that relief can be had from Super-tax, and is that correct?

Mr. YOUNG

I would not encourage the belief that any relief from Super-tax can be had other than those provided for in the Statute.
