HC Deb 04 July 1944 vol 401 c1001W
Squadron-Leader Fleming

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the parachutists' additional pay, known as danger money, is liable to Income Tax, which is resented by them; and whether he will explore the possibility of issuing danger money tax free.

Sir J. Grigg

My hon. and gallant Friend will be aware that all pay is liable to Income Tax and he will, I hope, appreciate that I am not in a position to alter this.
