§ 43. Mr. Peytonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will introduce legislation to ensure that in no circumstances can any taxpayer be liable to pay tax at a rate which exceeds 20s. in the pound.
Mr. AmoryIf my hon. Friend will let me know the type of case he has in mind I will gladly look into it.
§ Mr. PeytonWould my right hon. Friend have a look at the effect on private companies which has followed the withdrawal of the Chancellor's umbrella and which has resulted in companies being faced with Surtax payment? I believe that there is an injustice here. Will my right hon. Friend look into it?
Mr. AmoryI shall be looking at all these matters in the course of the general review of taxation which I shall be making in the next few months.
