Riassunto

""Copy of Evidence as to the Incidence of Local Taxation"" is a book written by George Sclater-Booth in 1881. The book is a compilation of evidence presented to the Royal Commission on Local Taxation, which was established to investigate the fairness and effectiveness of local taxation in England and Wales. Sclater-Booth, who was a Member of Parliament and the President of the Local Government Board, was a key figure in the commission and played a significant role in shaping its findings. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the evidence presented to the commission, including testimony from experts in the fields of finance, economics, and local government. The evidence covers a wide range of topics related to local taxation, including the distribution of tax burdens among different classes of society, the impact of taxation on local economies, and the effectiveness of different tax systems. Throughout the book, Sclater-Booth argues that local taxation in England and Wales is unfair and ineffective, and that reforms are needed to create a more equitable and efficient system. He proposes a number of specific reforms, such as the introduction of a national system of local taxation and the use of more progressive tax rates. Overall, ""Copy of Evidence as to the Incidence of Local Taxation"" is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the debates surrounding local taxation in England and Wales in the late 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of taxation and local government in the UK.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
