Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many individual (a) prosecutions and (b) convictions have taken place under the Money Laundering Regulations by HMRC in each year since 2013.

The majority of businesses supervised by HMRC are compliant and play an important role in our financial system.

Those who fail to comply with the Money Laundering Regulations leave themselves, and the UK economy, open to attacks by criminals. HMRC takes a robust approach to non-compliance and uses a wide range of measures to tackle those who breach the regulations, including civil penalties as well as criminal prosecutions.

HMRC does not publish the data of the number of prosecutions under the Money Laundering Regulations at this granular level.

Our data system does not filter down to a level that would identify the individual as a director.
