HC Deb 18 November 1977 vol 939 cc408-9W
Mr. McCrindle

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, in the light of the proposed increases in commuters' fares, he will reconsider the possibility of allowing esential travel to work fares to be offset against tax.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

I do not think it would be right to single out this particular form of expenditure for tax relief.
