HC Deb 07 June 1978 vol 951 cc187-8W
Mr. Wakeham

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is his estimate of the number of taxpayers who would be taken out of the levels of direct taxation if the married man's tax allowance was twice the single person's allowance.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

If the married age allowance was similarly increased to twice the single age allowance some 580,000 tax units, counting married couples as one.
