§ The Attorney-GeneralI beg to move, in page 15, line 1, to leave out "not exceeding fifteen days."
This Amendment is designed to give effect to a decision reached that the provisions of Clause 20, which confer exemption from Income Tax on certain bounties paid to members of the Armed Forces, should be extended so as to exempt the bounties recently announced which will be paid to members of the R.A.F.V.R. and the Royal Auxiliary Air Force who are called up for three weeks' training under the Reserve and Auxiliary Forces Training Act, 1951. The elimination of the words which I seek to leave out has the effect of widening the scope of the Clause and making it applicable in its terms to include the other categories of case which we feel should be brought within the scope of the Clause.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
§ Clauses 21 and 22 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
