§ Mr. Normantonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in the light of the concern among members of the public at the complexity of income tax forms, what steps he is taking to effect a simplification of them and a reduction in their number.
§ Mr. Robert SheldonEvery effort is made to keep the income tax forms as simple as possible consistent with the complexity of the law and the need to provide sufficient guidance to taxpayers on their completion.
