HC Deb 02 December 1920 vol 135 c1476W
Mr. T. WILSON

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he will amend Section 105 (1) (b) of the Income Tax Act, 1918, in such a way as to provide that employers shall not be required to make a return of the earnings of their employés who are married and whose earnings are less than £62 10s. per quarter?

Mr. BALDWIN

As at present advised I am not in a position to propose a further amendment of Section 105 (1) (b) of the Income Tax Act, 1918, but I may inform the hon. Member that the possibility of administrative arrangements in the direction which he desires is being carefully explored.
