Mr. Bercow

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many higher rate tax payers there were in the Buckingham constituency in(a) 2000, (b) 2001 and (c) 2002–03. [107776]

There were around 10,000 higher rate income taxpayers in the constituency of Buckingham in the 2000–01 tax year. This estimate is based on the Survey of Personal Incomes. I regret that estimates are not available for later years.
