§ Captain Kerbyasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what income tax allowances, or other concessions, are given to Commonwealth immigrants in the United Kingdom whose dependants here include second wives, to whom they are legally married according to religious or tribal custom in their country of origin; and what tax concessions are permitted in respect of the children of such second and other wives.
§ Mr. Harold LeverA married man's allowance is £375, and this is not increased if he has more than one wife; child allowance would be due, subject to the conditions which apply to United Kingdom residents generally, for children of the second marriage.
