HC Deb 07 July 1993 vol 228 c152W
Mr. French

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer in which commercial sectors the Inland Revenue has identified the greatest movement(a) from schedule D to schedule E and (b) from schedule E to schedule D.

Mr. Dorrell

I regret that this information is not available. But looking at the total work force, the proportion that are self-employed and paying tax under schedule D has risen from 7 per cent. in 1978–79 to 10 per cent. in 1992–93.
