§ Mr. BUTCHERasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether Section 37 of the Finance Act, 1916, is retrospective; and whether a person who has, since the outbreak of war and prior to 1st April, 1916, paid a war insurance premium is allowed the benefit of this Section and to a readjustment or return of Income Tax paid by him?
§ Mr. McKENNANo objection is offered to the Income Tax allowance in respect of these premiums as from the date of the outbreak of war, and repayment claims will be admitted accordingly.
