HC Deb 24 November 1983 vol 49 cc293-4W
42. Mr. Brinton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has come to a satisfactory arrangement with the Association of Cinematograph Television and Allied Technicians concerning the proposals he made to transfer many members of this trade union to the schedule E category of taxation.

Mr. Ian Stewart

A number of meetings have been held with the Association of Cinematograph Television and Allied Technicians and other representative bodies in the industry. Agreement on the taxation treatment of freelance workers in a number of grades has been reached and a further meeting is planned. Anyone who does not agree with his classification for taxation purposes may, of course, ask to have the matter heard on appeal before the general commissioners.
