HC Deb 16 February 1943 vol 386 c1592
54. Mr. Mathers

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the deductions of Income Tax from the salaried employees of railway companies have to comply with the restriction of deductions arrangements which operate in the case of other workers whose employers act as his agents in collecting the tax?

Sir K. Wood

Arrangements have been made for the application to salaried employees of railway companies of the same rules as regards restriction of deductions as are applied in the case of employees generally.

Mr. Mathers

Can the Chancellor of the Exchequer say from what date that new arrangement was made?

Sir K. Wood

It was made some little time ago; I announced it in the House a few days ago.
