HMRC does not publish this information.

Statistics on employment income are published annually as part of the Survey of Personal Incomes. Outturn data for the tax year 2020 to 2021 is the latest available.

Specifically, Table 3.15 contains the latest constituency-level breakdown of taxpayer numbers. This covers individuals with employment income by Parliamentary Constituency. Breakdowns by country and region are also available in this table.
