Paul Flynn – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Attorney General

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Paul Flynn on 2015-02-10.

To ask the Attorney General, what discussions he has had with the Crown Prosecution Service in respect of the possibility of prosecuting HSBC Bank for conspiracy to assist some of its customers to evade paying tax.

Mr Robert Buckland

The Attorney General and I frequently meet representatives of the Crown Prosecution Service to discuss a variety of issues. However, as was the case with previous Administrations, it is not the Government’s policy to provide details of all such meetings.
