§ Mr. PRETYMANasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether the statement published by him on Tuesday, 19th June, showing the basis on which house property is assessed to Schedule A, applies equally to the assessment to Schedule A of agricultural land both where the land is let and where it is occupied by the owner; and, if so, will the surveyors of taxes be instructed accordingly?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSThe principles explained in the statement referred to are applicable equally to land and to house property; this is made clear in the instructions which have already been issued to the inspectors of taxes.
