HC Deb 03 April 1963 vol 675 c458

The abolition of Schedule A calls in question the future of the old Land Tax which is collected along with it. It now yields only £200,000 a year from some 80,000 or 90,000 assessments. I have, therefore, decided to abolish it with effect from 25th March, 1963, the end of the last land tax year. No redemption payment will be due on land which changes hands after that date.
