Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what the monetary value of corporation tax penalties for late submission of tax returns charged but not paid were in each of the tax years (a) 2012-13, (b) 2013-14, (c) 2014-15, (d) 2015-16 and (e) 2016-17.
HMRC do not separately estimate the tax gap due to companies being struck off. However, the HMRC Trust Statement contains figures for tax written off each year. Around 90% of the amounts written off relate to insolvencies.
The remainder of the information requested is not held centrally by HMRC.
