§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will cause an investigation to be made to ascertain to what extent the practice is prevalent of Commonwealth immigrants claiming tax relief for their legitimate and illegitimate children remaining in the countries of their origin; and if he will make a statement about what proof is needed in the way of birth certificates and upkeep costs of these children by the father before these tax reliefs are granted.
§ Mr. NottI do not consider such an investigation is called for. In reply to the second part of the Question I would refer the hon. Member to my hon. Friend the Chief Secretary's Answer to his Question of 24th October.—[Vol. 843, c. 213.]
