HC Deb 02 March 1976 vol 906 cc545-6W
Mr. George Rodgers

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make arrangements that whenever possible the income tax reports of individuals are lodged in the office serving the vicinity in which the taxpayer resides.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

It is not normally possible to locate income tax records merely by reference to the place of residence. The records of employees and occupational pensioners are lodged with the office dealing with the PAYE affairs of the employer or pension-paying authority. In many instances the office concerned is also that dealing with the vicinity where the taxpayer resides, but where this is not so a taxpayer can obtain help from any convenient local tax office.
