Taxation Of Married Couples

EDM number 372 in 1996-97, proposed by Michael Alison on 18/12/1996.

That this House notes that the income tax burden on both married couples and lone parents with dependent children has grown more rapidly than that on other taxpayers; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to consult widely, and to publish the results of the consultations concerning how the tax system might better support marriage and the family.

This motion has been signed by a total of 17 MPs.
