Proceeding contribution from Philip Dunne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

Will the Economic Secretary kindly enlighten us on another matter? When talking about the way in which the Government are approaching the issue, he referred to principles. What is his view of principle 6 from the Financial Services Authority, which is entitled ““Treating customers fairly””? What about pensioners who die the day before they reach their 75th birthday? Their pension estate is effectively untaxed. Then there are those who, unfortunately for them, die shortly afterwards. The tax rate that applies varies between 0 and 82 per cent. How is that fair?
