2nd Sep 2024
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they will make a statement on the future of the system of Prime Minister's trade envoys.

We are carefully considering the Prime Minister’s Trade Envoy programme in the context of the new Government’s trade objectives. We will update the house in due course on the programme’s future.

26th Jan 2026
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the readiness of the self-employed to submit quarterly returns through Making Tax Digital.

The government is undertaking a range of activities to ensure those needing to use Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax from April 2026 are ready and able to do so successfully.

This includes media campaigns, awareness letters, developing guidance, and working with the software industry to ensure a broad range of MTD‑compatible products is available, including free options.

MTD quarterly updates are not like making a tax return each quarter. Software will manage much of the process, creating simple summaries of income and expenses from the taxpayer’s digital records ready for submission.

Information provided within the quarterly updates will be carried forward to the tax return, helping to reduce errors and make the end of year process faster and easier.

Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)
