HC Deb 18 February 1969 vol 778 cc71-2W
Mr. Tapsell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much he estimates to be the return in taxation from claiming back family allowances in full by reducing the child tax allowance from those above the standard-rate tax threshold for the years 1968–69 and 1969–70, respectively.

Mr. Harold Lever

It would not be practicable to confine the cut in tax allowances to those liable at the standard rate.
