To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate he has made of the revenue accrued by HM Treasury through tax on ivory artworks and objets d'art in each of the last five years; and if his Department will make an estimate of the potential cost to the public purse of a ban on the ivory trade in the UK in the next five years.

National statistics of the PAYE tax deducted from pay, by industry (Table 2.10) is available at https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/pay-as-you-earn-tax-deducted-from-pay-by-industry. Information on employees of mining companies listed on the London Stock Exchange could only be provided at disproportionate cost.

Question
to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what proportion of the annual UK tax revenue was paid by mining companies listed on the London Stock Exchange in each year since 1990.
Answered by Jane Ellison
There are no taxes levied specifically on mining companies. This activity is subject to the UK's general taxation regimes such as VAT and Corporation Tax. However it is not possible to say how much revenue these taxes raise from mining companies, as the number of companies involved is below the Government’s threshold for disclosing tax liabilities.

Question
to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what proportion of GDP the UK mining industry contributed in (a) 1995, (b) 2005 and (c) 2015.
Answered by Simon Kirby
Data from the independent Office for National Statistics (ONS) show that mining made up 0.3% of GVA in 2015, 0.4% in 2005 and 0.5% in 1997.
Data for 1995 is available but not perfectly comparable to the post-1997 data. This shows that mining & quarrying made up 0.5% of GVA in 1995.
