Income Tax — Abolition of 10% starting rate — 18 Mar 2008 at 21:41

The majority of MPs voted to delete all references to the "starting rate" of taxation[1] in the Income Tax Act 2007.[2] This left only the "basic rate", whose limit was moved from £33,300[3] to £36,000 and the "higher rate" of income tax.

This change in taxation was mentioned in the April 2007 budget,[4] but questions about its consequences went unanswered.[5]

Two months after the April 2007 budget, a law which would have required the Government to produce an assessment of how any change in personal taxation would affect the different income groups was voted down by a majority of MPs.[6]
