HC Deb 19 January 1943 vol 386 cc89-90W
Sir L. Lyle

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that many industrial workers escape payment of Income Tax owing to moving from place to place, and that this especially applies to the wholesale clothing trade where cutters are constantly changing their employment; that in some such cases 50 per cent. of the workers cannot be traced when the question of tax payment arises; and whether he will take additional powers, if necessary, to enforce legal liability?

Sir K. Wood

I would refer my hon, Friend to the reply which I gave to a Question on this subject by the hon. Member for Stourbridge (Mr. R. Morgan) on 15th October, of which I am sending him a copy.
