§ Captain BULLOCKasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the amount of Super-tax still unpaid at the present moment and at the close of each of the last three years?
§ Mr. P. SNOWDENThe Super-tax assessed but not paid at the 31st March in each of the last three years has been estimated as follows:
£ As 31st March, 1927 … 19,325,000 At 31st March, 1928 … 14,500,000 At 31st March, 1929 … 14,000,000 These figures represent the estimated amount of tax which will ultimately prove to be collectible, after allowing for all discharges and reductions that may be made. It is estimated that at the 30th September, 1929, the Super-tax in assessment but unpaid which will prove to be collectible was about £8,000,000.
