HC Deb 10 July 1958 vol 591 c48W
Sir F. Markham

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the estimated yield of tax under Schedule A for the present year, and the cost of assessing and collecting it.

Mr. Simon

About £100 million. I regret that the cost of assessing and collecting this tax cannot be segregated from the general cost of administering the Revenue, which amounted to 3.22d. in the £ of the revenue collected in 1956–57, the latest year for which the figures are available.
