Mr. John

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is his most recent estimate of the extra revenue that will be raised by the taxation of benefits for the unemployed (a) in 1982–83 and (b) in a full tax year, assuming that personal tax allowances are raised in line with inflation and that tax rates remain unchanged.

Mr. Ridley

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