Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 23 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords (Members' Taxation Status) Bill [HL].


House of Lords (Members’ Taxation Status) Bill [HL]

My Lords, in all honesty, I can only assume that the noble Viscount is wilfully misunderstanding the point. In my speech, I took the trouble particularly to refer to him and to the noble Lord, Lord Selsdon, because the same misunderstanding arose last time. Of course you can be taxed on that basis if the Bill is passed. It provides that someone will pay tax on the full British basis whatever their status actually is. I should have thought that that was crystal clear.
