HC Deb 24 March 1977 vol 928 cc596-7W
50. Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what steps he intends to take to assist police officers who own their own homes but, on being transferred to an area which necessitates living elsewhere, find themselves losing tax relief on their mortgage repayments.

Dr. Summerskill

The general question of tax relief on mortgage interest paid by occupiers of tied accommodation is under consideration by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
