Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Lord Bruce of Bennachie (Liberal Democrat). It was answered by David Gauke (Conservative) on Tuesday, 13 July 2010 on behalf of the Treasury.
Income Tax
- Question
- What plans he has for future changes to income tax arrangements.
- Answer
-
In the Budget, the Government announced a £1,000 increase in personal allowances for under-65s. We estimate that 23 million basic rate taxpayers will gain by up to £170 per year from this measure, and that 880,000 will be taken out of tax altogether. This is the first step towards our long-term objective to raise the personal allowance to £10,000.
