§ Mr. Meacherasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the basis of a 1 per cent. levy on all capital holdings in private hands in excess of £50,000, if he will estimate the property charge; and what proportion of the total property charge would consist of settled property.
§ Mr. Patrick JenkinIf the charge were spread evenly over the total capital holding, the portion attributable to realty and leaseholds would be about £30 million. It is not known how much of it would relate to settled property.
