HC Deb 19 October 1943 vol 392 c1216
62. Mr. Ivor Thomas

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he proposes to introduce a scheme for a capital levy to reduce the National Debt?

Sir J. Anderson

I have nothing to add to previous statements on this subject.

Mr. Thomas

Is the Chancellor still of the same opinion as that which he gave before the Select Committee on Increase of Wealth (War), in 1920?

Sir J. Anderson

I will keep that in mind.

Commander Loeker-Lampson

Are not Death Duties a capital levy?
