HC Deb 15 April 1969 vol 781 c236W
Mr. Wellbeloved

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will seek powers to set up a Tax Law Revision Committee with representatives from the Inland Revenue, the professions concerned, and some academics with a view to completing the consolidation of tax law as soon as possible, studying existing tax law and recommending simplification and improvements, and studying any new tax law enacted by Parliament and making similar recommendations.

Mr. Harold Lever

I do not think that a committee of this kind is the right way of achieving these objectives.
