§ Sir R. HORNEClause 13 (1) (c) of the Finance Bill provides in certain circumstances that income payable to or applicable for the benefit of a child under a disposition made by a parent of the child shall be regarded as the income of the parent for purposes of Income Tax (including Super-tax) so long as the child is an infant and unmarried (that. is, so 41W long as it is the natural and proper duty of the parent to provide for the child), but only if the disposition is made for a period less than the life of the child. The answer, therefore, to the first part of the question, if I have understood it aright, is in the negative and the other parts of the question do not arise.
