Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what the frequently of inspections of Customs Warehouses is by HMRC.

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) is responsible for authorising and monitoring Customs Warehouses. Compliance checks of Customs Warehouses are conducted as part of a flexible, risk-based programme of compliance interventions across the whole tax and customs system. The frequency of these interventions depends on a number of factors including the level and nature of the risks identified.
