§ 50. Mrs. COPELANDasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the amount paid in Income Tax during 1933 by any limited liability chain-store in comparison with a co-operative society having the same turnover, taking into consideration the gross profits of each organisation?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINI am afraid that I cannot enter into any comparison of the kind that my hon. Friend suggests, as the conditions of secrecy attaching to the Income Tax preclude the giving of any information respecting the liability of any taxpayer.
