Income Tax and Ratepayers

HC Deb 21 March 1961 vol 637 c31W

63. Mr. Lindsay

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will state the approximate percentage of Income Tax payers who are also ratepayers.

Mr. Selwyn Lloyd

No direct information is available, but possibly about two-thirds of all individual Income Tax payers are also householders and would thus either pay rates as such or pay an inclusive rent.
