HC Deb 26 October 1971 vol 823 cc285-6W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, of the total taxation cuts so far introduced on the proposal of the Government, how much is estimated to have accrued to those with incomes over £5,000 a year and how much to those with incomes under £1,000 a year; and how many taxpayers fall into each of these categories.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

It is not possible to provide accurate estimates; many of the changes do not directly affect individuals.
