HC Deb 28 July 1980 vol 989 c476W
Mrs. Renee Short

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) in what circumstances the Inland Revenue still pays rebates due in respect of a wife's income to her husband; and if he will take action to ensure that such rebates are paid to the wife direct in future;

(2) in what circumstances does the Inland Revenue correspond about a married woman's tax affairs by writing to her husband; and if he will take action to ensure that in future all communications concerning a married woman's tax affairs are addressed directly to her.

Mr. Poter Rees

I shall let the hon. Member have a reply as soon as possible.
