The Government does not hold information on the amount of revenue raised through VAT paid on cladding and other building safety remediation projects carried out between June 2017 and June 2023. This is because this type of work is likely to be completed by businesses that undertake a variety of construction-related projects, and HMRC do not require businesses to provide a breakdown on their VAT returns of exactly what projects the VAT was charged on.
