Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many businesses in the gaming, gambling and leisure industries that applied to reclaim VAT, following the Upper Tribunals decision in favour of Rank and Done Bros in 2020, have yet to receive a refund on the tax.
144 businesses have received a refund. In addition, 157 claims have been rejected as invalid, and 474 are in the process of validation.
