Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will request the EU's inspection teams to provide details of all preferential tax deals between (a) Luxembourg, (b) the Netherlands and (c) Ireland and multinational corporations which trade in the UK.

The European Commission has a duty of confidentiality to Member States in relation to the information they provide to the Commission. Where appropriate, HMRC can request information relevant to UK tax matters directly from the fiscal authorities in Member States under existing arrangements for the exchange of information.
