RENT A ROOM TAX RELIEF

Early day motion 799, tabled 3 February 2010 by Andrew Pelling (Independent). Signed by 3 members.

That this House calls for an increase in the rent a room tax relief threshold which was last increased in April 1997 from £3,250 a year to £4,250 a year so as to release extra housing capital in difficult economic times and to reduce the planning pressures for much-needed housing development.
