§ Mr. Ralph Howellasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will estimate the total amount of income tax deducted from persons who qualify for family income supplement and other statutory allowances including rate rebate.
§ Mr. MooreI regret that it is not possible to provide a reliable estimate. Data held on tax records do not contain information needed to determine qualification for family income supplement or housing benefit; and it is not possible to make a satisfactory estimate of the information requested from data available from other sources.
