	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/10/2015 answer text <p>The government has committed to raising the income tax personal allowance to £12,500 by the end of this parliament, alongside our commitment to raise the higher rate threshold to £50,000. These changes will benefit over 30 million individuals.</p><br /><p>Summer Budget 2015 set out the first step in meeting this commitment. The personal allowance will increase from £10,600 in 2015-16 to £11,000 in 2016-17, and £11,200 in 2017-18.</p><br /><p>These changes will benefit over 29 million individuals and take 570,000 individuals out of income tax altogether by 2016-17. This will increase to over 660,000 by 2017-18. A typical basic rate taxpayer will see their income tax bill reduced by £905 by 2016-17, compared to 2010.</p> answering member constituency South West Hertfordshire answering member printed Mr David Gauke question first answered 28/10/2015 17:32:25 answering member 1529 label Biography information for Mr David Gauke
