INCOME TAX PERSONAL ALLOWANCE

Early day motion 2791, tabled 28 February 2012 by Stephen Williams (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 32 members.

That this House congratulates the Coalition Government on its increase in the personal allowance of income tax, which has already taken 800,000 working people out of the tax system and given 23 million people a 200 tax cut; welcomes the commitment to increasing the threshold to 10,000, which will save working people 700 a year and take millions of the lowest paid workers out of the tax system; and calls on the Chancellor of the Exchequer to go further and faster in his 2012 Budget.

Signatures by party: Liberal Democrat 26, Conservative 3, DUP 2, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
