Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many Real Time Information hashes have been sent by the BACS payment scheme to HMRC in each year since 2012.

This information is not available centrally, and could be researched only at disproportionate cost.

HMRC has published guidance to help and support employers with the hash validation process. HMRC continue to work with customers to help and support employer education to improve the accuracy and timeliness of RTI data.
