HC Deb 28 March 1922 vol 152 cc1153-4W
Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can hold out any hope that, bearing in mind the acknowledged equality of the sexes, an alteration will be made in the present law which treats as one the income of husband and wife for taxation purposes?

Sir R. HORNE

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer (a copy of which I am sending him) given on the 1st instant in reply to a question on this subject by the hon. Member for Wallasey (Mr. M'Donald).
