§ Viscount WOLMERasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he would order the return of 18s. to Mr. J. Woodward, of Penketh, Warrington, which the district Commissioners of Taxes have admitted they wrongfully extorted from him as Income Tax for the year 1909–10?
§ Mr. ILLINGWORTHI am unable to accept the suggestion in the Noble Lord's question that Income Tax was wrongly paid by Mr. Woodward for the year 1909–10. As my right hon. Friend has previously explained, the assessment upon Mr. Woodward for that year was confirmed by the District Commissioners of Taxes in the absence of an appeal.
