Julie Cooper – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Julie Cooper on 2015-11-30.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate his Department has made of the benefit to the public purse of the closing of tax loopholes in each of the next five years.

Mr David Gauke

Revenue protected in connection with avoidance measures is scored in relevant documentation published by HM Treasury.

However, for convenience on 19 March 2015 the coalition government published a document detailing the action taken over the course of the last Parliament to tackle tax evasion and avoidance. That document can be found at: www.gov.uk/government/publications/tackling-tax-evasion-and-avoidance
