HC Deb 25 July 1968 vol 769 cc179-80W
Mr. Atkinson

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that the French authorities propose to allow five years to computerise the French tax system; why his Department requires 15 years to computerise the British system; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Harold Lever

The scheme proposed for this country involves greater changes both in procedures and in location of staff than that proposed in France.
