HMRC: Tax Returns

Lord Forsyth of Drumlean Excerpts

Wednesday 10th January 2024 Lords Chamber

[Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Con)]

My Lords, further to my noble friend’s first Answer, has she actually tried ringing the HMRC herself, and what was the outcome?

[Baroness Vere of Norbiton (Con)]

My noble friend will be very pleased to know that I phoned HMRC on Monday and eventually managed to speak to a person. I did not tell them who I was, and I do not have very complex tax affairs. It was something very simple, but it could be done only by a real person.
