Lord Davies of Brixton (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 October 2024

Debate

Independent Schools: VAT

Contribution

My Lords, I have two points for my noble friend the Minister by way of background to this debate. Does she agree that it is not just those parents who pay for their children’s schooling who care about their children’s education? Also, we all must pay our fair share of taxation—some taxes on our incomes, some on our expenditure through VAT. We pay our taxes not as a fee for service but as part of our commitment to society as a whole.
