HC Deb 30 October 1970 vol 805 c231W
Mr. Thomas Cox

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, in his forthcoming legislation, he will express the rates of income tax applicable for the financial year 1971–72 in decimal currency, in view of the fact that the changes will come into effect after the changover to decimal currency.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

The rate of income tax for 1971–72, like the rate for the two previous years, will be expressed as a percentage.
