§ Mr. RAMSBOTHAMasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider the advisability of authorising the Inland Revenue authorities to accept Government stocks in payment of Income Tax and Surtax in January next at their market value, in order to avoid the depreciation likely to result from large amounts of these stocks being thrown on the market and realised to pay tax?
§ Mr. P. SNOWDENThe answer is in the negative.
