Income Tax

HC Deb 23 May 1978 vol 950 cc550-1W

Mr. Scott-Hopkins

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much revenue was raised by income tax payable under Schedule E in the fiscal year 1977–78; and what was the cost of collection.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

The total gross receipt of income tax payable under Schedule E, including PAYE, in the fiscal year 1977–78 is estimated to be about £13,600 million. I regret that a separate figure for the cost of collecting Schedule E tax is not available.

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much revenue was raised by income tax payable under Schedule D (Case VI) in the fiscal year 1977–78; and what was the cost of collection.
