§ 39. Mr. Liddallasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that the industrial insurance companies' canvassers are bringing pressure to bear upon domestic and other servants to take out insurance policies by making statements to the effect that the inclusion of board and lodging as part wages makes them liable to Income Tax; and whether he will issue a short statement for the benefit of the small Income Tax payer?
§ The Chancellor of the Exchequer (Sir Kingsley Wood)I am not aware of the practice referred to in the first part of my hon. Friend's Question. If my hon. Friend will forward me any particulars he has on the subject, I will gladly consider them.
