To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many staff are employed by HMRC in each region; and how many staff will be employed in each HMRC regional hub when those hubs become fully operational.
The number of full time equivalent (FTE) staff currently employed by HMRC in each region and the number expected to be based in each HMRC regional centre are set out in the table below.
Additionally HMRC will be retaining a Headquarters, five specialist sites and eight transitional sites which will remain operational after the opening of the regional centres. The Ipswich Transitional Site will become a specialist site in 2026. The figures included in the table are what have been announced to date.
HMRC is still finalising its plans for its regional centre in Nottingham and for the second phases of Glasgow and Manchester.
