HC Deb 29 April 1926 vol 194 c2190
32. Mr. H. WILLIAMS

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the number of persons assessed for 1925–26 in respect of earned income and the total earned income of the persons assessed, and the amount of reduction in assessment resulting from the allowance of one-sixth in respect of earned income?

Mr. McNEILL

I regret that I am unable to give numbers of persons in receipt of earned income for any year, and statistics of the amount of income assessed for the year 1925–26 will not be available for some considerable time.

36. Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he proposes to include in the forthcoming Finance Bill proposals to carry out the recommendations of the Royal Commission on the Income Tax so far as collectors of Income Tax: are concerned?

Mr. McNEILL

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the 27th April to my hon. Friend the Member for Kidderminster (Mr. Wardlaw-Milne).
