HC Deb 29 June 1971 vol 820 c73W
50. Mr. Meacher

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is his estimate of the cost in loss of revenue to the Exchequer, under the reform of personal taxation, on the basis that the investment surcharge is not applied for, respectively, the first £250, £500, £750, £1,000, £1,250 and £1,500 of unearned income.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

The estimates will depend upon the rate of surcharge which will not be fixed until 1973.
