  • Balance of Taxation (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Stephen Knight
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2012
    Stephen Knight (AM): To pick you up on the point you have just made around the high property values in London, compared, I believe with most other developed countries, we have very few property and wealth taxes in this country; we predominantly focus on income and sales taxes.
