Written Question
Multinational Companies: Taxation
Wednesday 26th July 2017

Asked by: Caroline Flint (Labour - Don Valley)

Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, whether the Government plans to include a multilateral deal on public country-by-country reporting as part of its negotiations on leaving the EU.

Answered by Steve Baker

We have raised public country-by-country reporting with international partners and the Government will continue to engage with our international partners, including at EU level, on this issue.
