HC Deb 24 November 1969 vol 792 c26W
91. Sir T. Beamish

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what gross salary would be required by the Prime Minister to give him a net income after tax equivalent to his present net income, including the unvouched tax-free element of his salary, but taking no account of his parliamentary or other allowances: and to what taxes such a gross income would be subject in this financial year.

Mr. William Rodgers

£14,000, subject to a statutory deduction for tax purposes of £4,000 in respect of expenses admissible under the Schedule E expenses rule as being incurred "wholly, exclusively and necessarily in the performance of" the duties of the office; the answer to the second part of the Question would depend upon individual circumstances.
