§ 63. Major Legge-Bourkeasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider making it possible to claim back tax on all wages paid for domestic work out of the residue of taxed income.
§ Mr. DaltonNo, Sir.
§ Major Legge-BourkeDoes not the Chancellor agree that unless wages of domestic workers are made comparable with those of factory workers, people will never go back into domestic service? How does he expect them to be comparable with taxation as it is at present?
§ Mr. DaltonIt is not in the national interest to divert workers from factories into domestic work.
