HC Deb 11 February 1944 vol 396 c2011W
Mr. Ellis Smith

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will now authorise publication of the Annual Reports of the Board of Inland Revenue containing full information, whose publication has been suspended during hostilities.

Sir J. Anderson

The decision to suspend publication during the war of certain Annual Reports, including those of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue, was made on security grounds. When publication is resumed after the war the Reports for war years will also be released for publication.
