Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many locum doctors are subject to the 2019 Loan Charge.
No estimate of the number of locum doctors affected by the 2019 Loan Charge has been made. It is the Department’s expectation however that locum doctors do not enter into tax avoidance arrangements and should comply with this new legislation from its introduction in April 2019.
