The government has committed to increase the personal allowance to £12,500 by 2020 which will mean that a typical basic rate taxpayer will see their income tax cut by £1,205 a year compared to 2010.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 23/10/2015 12:55:58 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
