HC Deb 22 April 1915 vol 71 cc425-6W
Mr. KEIR HARDIE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will state the amount raised during the last financial year by Income Tax and the amount raised from Super-tax; what is the amount raised by what is termed breakfast-table duties; and what is the total amount raised

through local taxation, including poor and general rates, education, improvements, etc.?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

I fear that, in accordance with the usual practice, I cannot see my way to give the information asked for in the first and second parts of the question in anticipation of my financial statement. As regards the last part of the question, I would refer the hon. Member to my right hon. Friends the Presidents of the Local Government Board and the Board of Education.
