§ Mr. Austin Mitchellasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will publish in the Official Report his estimate of the distribution of gross incomes in the coming financial year by range of income in steps of £1,000 to £20,000 and £5,000 to £50,000 divided between elderly and other taxpayers and between single persons and one-earner and two-earner households.
§ Mr. Norman Lamont[pursuant to his reply, 25 March 1987, c. 216]:The latest available estimates are given in the table. They are based on a projection from the 1984–85 survey of personal incomes and are therefore provisional. In order to provide reliable estimates some of the requested income ranges have been combined.
