HC Deb 09 February 1943 vol 386 c1165
53. Mr. Douglas

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can give an estimate of the extent to which the yield of Income Tax and Excess Profits Tax would be reduced as a result of the contributions for social insurance proposed in the Beveridge Report to be paid by employers, employees and others?

Sir K. Wood

I regret that I am unable to furnish the estimate which my hon, Friend desires.
