HC Deb 25 July 1972 vol 841 c1521
16. Mr. Sydney Chapman

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is satisfied with the preparation for the introduction of the new unified system of personal tax; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nott

I am satisfied that work is going to plan.

Mr. Chapman

As there is less than nine months to go before the implementation of the new unified system—and perhaps my hon. Friend will confirm that it is coming in in April, 1973—may I ask whether he intends to give the widest possible publicity to what is, after all, a radical new system of assessing taxation well before it comes into force?

Mr. Nott

A leaflet will be sent out with the coding notices, and in the autumn the Revenue will publish a pamphlet explaining the new system in simple terms. Other Revenue publications will naturally be altered as necessary to meet the new system. It will be coming in on the date already predicted.
