Tax Statistics

John Hemming: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many taxpayers in each parliamentary constituency paid the (a) starting, (b) basic and (c) higher rate of tax in the last year for which figures are available. [21479]

Dawn Primarolo: The latest information on the estimated number of income taxpayers and their mean and median total income by constituency, is shown in table 3.15 Total Income by Parliamentary Constituency" on the HM Revenue and Customs internet website http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/stats/income_distribution/table-3–15.xls.

The income tax information is based upon the 2002–03 Survey of Personal Incomes (SPI).

A breakdown of income taxpayers by tax bands is not available because the sample sizes for marginal rates at constituency level are very small and demonstrate a large variability year on year.

Unemployment

Chris Ruane: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many people (a) have been unemployed and (b) have been unemployed in each ward of the Vale of Clwyd in each of the last 30 years. [20319]

John Healey: The information requested falls within the responsibility of the National Statistician, who has been asked to reply.
