HC Deb 14 June 1966 vol 729 c258W
Mr. Harry Howarth

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will take steps to rectify the anomaly in the rate rebate scheme whereby a person receiving interest income once yearly is not eligible for a rebate during the half year he receives his interest income, despite the fact that his total income for a full year would normally qualify for a rebate.

Mr. MacColl

A departure from the basis in the Rating Act 1966 would produce its own difficulties and anomalies.
