Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Local Taxation of Great Britain and Ireland The Local Administration of this country has been much discussed in recent years, and when Mr. Tayler offered the prize which was the immediate occasion of the following pages, I gladly undertook to investigate a complete field of inquiry, many parts of which had interested me before. While writing, I was entirely unacquainted with the exhaustive report on the subject, then being drawn up under the direction of the Right Hon. G. J. Goschen. My Essay was submitted to the Council of the Statistical Society on 31st January, 1871, and the award of the adjudicators was made on 20th March, while Mr. Goschen´s report did not appear till 3rd April. Although thus I had not the advantage which the possession of Mr. Goschen´s report would have been to me at the time, there appeared to be no reason why such additional information as space permitted, should not be obtained from that report and incorporated here. The quotations made from that report have all been carefully marked, and the fullest information on the subject, obtainable at the present time, is thus given. It is needful to add the words "at the "present time," for as yet complete details do not exist of all branches of Local Taxation throughout the United Kingdom. As a disposition has been manifested to endeavour to alter the basis on which some rates are levied, it is desirable to draw attention to the fact that the apparent inequality of Local Taxation lies, not so much in the method of raising the sums imposed, as in the manner in which those sums are expended.
