Dr. Johnsonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the total amount collected for Schedule A Income Tax from owner-occupiers of houses in the year ended April, 1952; and what is the estimate of cost in the same year in collecting such tax.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftThe net yield of Income Tax on owner-occupied houses in the financial year 1951–52 is estimated at about £25 million. The cost of collecting this tax is part of the general cost of administering the Revenue and cannot be separately estimated.
