Proceeding contribution from Baroness Gardner of Parkes (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 12 March 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on House of Lords (Members' Taxation Status) Bill [HL].


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

Will the noble Lord explain to me, then, why Clause 1(1) uses the phrase, ""and in no other country for taxation purposes"?" Australia has a double taxation agreement with the UK, and for the tax I now pay there I will get credit on money here. Is he saying that the Australians would not charge me or that I would pay all that tax in Australia and pay it all again here without any relief? That is quite significant.
