Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate his Department has made of the amount of monies voluntarily returned within the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme.
Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme grants have been returned to HMRC where an employer no longer needs the grant, or has realised they have made errors and followed the guidance on putting things right. As of 15 September a total of £215,756,121 had been returned to HMRC voluntarily, via payments and adjustments to claims.
