Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will estimate the number of people in Hereford and South Herefordshire constituency who will no longer pay income tax as a result of the increased personal allowance.
By April 2015, this government’s increases in the personal allowance are estimated to have taken 3.2 million individuals out of income tax.
271,000 of these individuals live in the West Midlands, which includes the Parliamentary Constituency of Hereford and South Herefordshire.
HM Revenue & Customs does not publish this information at constituency level.
