HC Deb 13 April 1938 vol 334 cc1142-3W
Mr. Parkinson

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will state the amount of Income Tax remaining unpaid at the end of the financial years 1931 to 1934 and 1937?

Lieut.-Colonel Colville

Estimates of the amount of Income Tax in assessment but unpaid at the end of the financial years 1931 to 1934 have already been furnished in replies to Parliamentary questions on the 30th May, 1933, and 7th July, 1936, copies of which I am sending the hon. Member. As regards the amount remaining unpaid at the end of the year just ended I would remind the hon. Member that the review of the outturn for the year 1937 is a matter proper to the forthcoming Budget and my right hon. Friend would prefer not to furnish any information in advance of his Budget statement.
