§ Mr. WATTasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether Government officials in India are called upon to pay Income Tax there on their salaries and are again called upon to pay Income Tax when they send home to this country the savings on these salaries; and, if so, will he in future legislation remit this tax on thrift?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. Savings on salaries remitted to the United Kingdom are not chargeable to English Income Tax; but if invested in this country the income derived therefrom would be liable.
