Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how his Department works with HMRC to help ensure that VAT rulings are equitable to all stakeholders; and whether his Department monitors the appeals process of those decisions.
HM Treasury has no statutory authority over the application of VAT rulings or the appeals process of those decisions; this is wholly within the remit of HM Revenue and Customs. HM Revenue and Customs apply the law objectively to ensure that businesses apply the tax rules correctly.
