Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much of the additional £375 million of funding allocated to HMRC for preparations for the UK leaving the EU will be spent on recruiting HMRC customer service and compliance staff.
The amount of funding that will be spent on HMRC customer service and compliance staff in 2019/20 is dependent upon the eventual scenario of which the UK is exiting the EU. HMRC will continue to work with HM Treasury on its exact spending plans as these are confirmed.
