§ Mr. MitchellTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will investigate the German system of mortgage tax relief for first-time buyers of homes as an alternative to MIRAS. [2089]
§ Mrs. LiddellWhilst I am aware of the general German system of tax relief on home purchase I do not know of any special arrangements for first-time buyers. My officials will therefore seek to obtain details of these.
