HC Deb 13 February 1922 vol 150 c659W
Mr. MORGAN JONES

asked the Home Secretary if he can state what is the number of men now imprisoned in each of His Majesty's prisons in South Wales, respectively, on account of non-payment of Income Tax; and whether such arrears are in respect of tax due for the financial years prior to March, 1921?

Mr. SHORTT

There are 21 such cases in Cardiff Prison and 17 in Usk Prison. None in the other South Wales prisons. Of the 38 prisoners, I am informed that 26 are committed in respect of non-payment of Income Tax for years prior to March, 1921.
