Tim Farron MP, Westmorland and Lonsdale voted against requiring a report on the impact of raising the rate of tax applied to income over £150,000 from 45% to 50%.
The majority of MPs voted against requiring a report on increasing the additional rate of income tax to 50%. At the time of the vote the additional rate was 45% and applied to income over £150,000[1]
MPs were considering the Finance Bill.[2] The amendment rejected in this vote was:
- Amendment 4, page 2, line 11, at end insert—
- ‘( ) The Chancellor of the Exchequer shall, within three months of the passing of this Act, publish a report on the impact of setting the additional rate of income tax at 50 per cent.
- ( ) The report must estimate the impact of setting the additional rate for 2014-15 at 45 per cent and at 50 per cent on the amount of income tax currently paid by someone with a taxable income of—
- (a) £150,000 per year; and
- (b) £1,000,000 per year.
This would have added the above new subclauses to clause 1 of the Bill[3].
