§ Mr. M. JONESasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the details of the actual revenue for the year to 31st March, 1922, and of the estimated revenue for the year to 31st March, 1923, from Customs and Excise Duties, specifying the separate Customs and Excise revenues from
2210Wcollection of Income Tax, he will base all assessments upon the income of the preceding year, as is done in most of the Colonies of the British Empire?
Mr. YOUNGMy right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced in his Budget speech his intention to introduce in this year's Finance Bill several Amendments of law in the direction recommended by the Royal Commission on the Income Tax. He does not think that I time can be found in the present Session for dealing with further matters—many of which might be controversial—beyond those which he has announced.
