Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what information (a) his Department and (b) HM Revenue and Customs holds on the number of UK pensioners who receive state pensions from other EU member states.

HM Treasury and HM Revenue and Customs do not hold information on pension entitlements administered by other EU countries. Whilst taxpayers need to report such payments, reporting is combined with certain other forms of foreign income, notably payments from foreign private pensions.
