HC Deb 17 July 1939 vol 350 c31
59. Mr. Thorne

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the total income assessed for taxation for the years ended March, 1935, 1936, 1937, and 1938?

The Financial Secretary to the Treasury (Captain Crookshank)

I would refer the hon. Member to Tables 39, 40 and 41 of the Eighty-First Report of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue (Command Paper No. 5865 of 1939) where he will find particulars of the income assessed to Income Tax in each year from 1934–35 to 1937–38. Similar information as regards the income assessed to Surtax will be found in Table 55 of the same report.

Mr. Thorne

Can the Financial Secretary tell me where I can find the information about the number of people who have died with less than £50 worth of property?

Captain Crookshank

This Command Paper is full of the most interesting information.
