HC Deb 13 March 1951 vol 485 c137W
66. Colonel Crosthwaite-Eyre

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what action he has taken to prevent pensions paid in sterling to Britons, subsequent to the transference of power in India, being subject to taxation in India and in this country.

Mr. Gaitskell

Relief for Indian tax will be available in accordance with the provisions of Section 36 of the Finance Act, 1950, and the effect should be that in most cases pensioners will be relieved of any burden from double taxation.
