HC Deb 23 May 1972 vol 837 c309W
22. Sir A. Meyer

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will reconsider the refusal of his Department to order the Commissioners of Inland Revenue to abide by the decision of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration in the case of Mr. John Hope Beech.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

As I told my hon. Friend in correspondence, I have already reconsidered all aspects of this case and have come to the conclusion that it would not be appropriate to waive the tax liability which Mr. Beech has incurred.
