10p tax rate
The starting rate of income tax, often known as the 10p rate, was the lowest rate of personal income taxation in the United Kingdom from 1999 to 2008. It was introduced by then Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown, in his 1999 budget and abolished by him (in his last budget as Chancellor) in 2007.
== Description ==
The starting rate was introduced in Gordon Brown's third budget as Chancellor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Budget 1999: budget report:Chapter 4 - Increasing Employment Opportunity )〕 It applied to income between £4,335 and £5,835 and was charged at 10%,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/pdfs/1999_00/individual/sa151net.pdf )〕 replacing a previous 23% basic rate.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New Ambitions for Britain - Budget 1998 )〕 By 2008 the starting rate had been raised to apply to income between £5,225 and £7,455.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/worksheets/sa110-notes.pdf )〕 The starting rate was the lowest rate of income tax, and as such was the only income tax paid by 1.8 million of the lowest earners.〔 Gordon Brown said of its introduction:
"The 10p rate is very important because it's a signal about the importance we attach about getting people into work and it's of most importance to the low paid. This is not about gimmicks; this is about tax reform that encourages work and families, on the families side it is replacing what was an anomalous married couples' allowance and replace it with a child tax credit."
