HC Deb 07 April 1919 vol 114 c1680W
Brigadier-General CROFT

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether all employers are legally bound to make returns to tax surveyors of all employés, including manual workers, who are liable to pay Income Tax, even when the necessary forms are not sent to them for that purpose by the district tax surveyor?

Mr. BALDWIN

I have been asked to reply to this question. The Income Tax Acts impose upon employers a legal obligation to render returns of their employés in accordance with conditions prescribed by the Acts. I am not sure that I appreciate the exact point which the hon. and gallant Member has in mind, but if he will communicate to me the particulars of any case arising out of this provision of the law, I will cause inquiry to be made.
