Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 30 January 2023 to Question 131456 on High-risk Wealth Programme and the Answer of 20 February 2023 to Question 136859, how many unique cases were included in the High Risk Wealth Programme between 2017-18 and 2021-22.
I refer to the responses provided on 30th January 2023 to PQ UIN 131456 and on 20th February 2023 to PQ UIN 136859.
Over 2017-18 to 2021-22, two thirds of cases considered were included in the High Risk Wealth Programme (HRWP).
The HRWP was introduced in 2017-2018. The programme is reserved for our most complex and highest risk cases and we therefore do not expect a large number of cases to enter these programmes each year.
HRWP is just one aspect of our compliance approach, you can find out more about HMRC’s compliance approach here.
