HC Deb 09 July 1974 vol 876 c462W
Mr. Wakeham

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) whether he will publish in his forthcoming Green Paper on a wealth tax estimates of the distribution of wealth in those countries whose comparative rates of capital taxation are to be detailed in the Green Paper;

(2) whether he will publish in his forthcoming Green Paper on a wealth tax an estimate of the cost of collecting the tax including the cost of valuation of assets.

Mr. Joel Barnett

I shall bear in mind the hon. Member's suggestion.
