HC Deb 08 February 1911 vol 21 c399W
Captain FABER

asked the Chancellor whether his attention has been called to the case of John Shaw, accused of defrauding the Income Tax Commissioners; and whether it is the practice of the Inland Revenue Department to retain all the money that it gets, whether legally due from the taxpayers or not?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I am not aware that my right hon. Friend's attention has been drawn to the case referred to in the first part of the question; but, if the hon. and gallant Member will furnish me with further particulars, I will cause inquiry to be made. The reply to the second part of the question is in the negative.
