Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will make an assessment of the adequacy of the accessibility of HMRC's Consultation on changes to HMRC statistics publications 2025, published on 16 January 2025.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) launched the consultation on changes to HMRC statistics publications on GOV.UK on 16 January 2025. The consultation will remain open until 10 April 2025 and the consultation response, setting out confirmed plans, will be published in summer 2025.

When publishing the consultation, HMRC have followed the Government Digital Service guidance on publishing accessible documents on GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/publishing-accessible-documents), including publishing the consultation document in HTML format, making it easier for users to find and navigate. Responses to this consultation are able to be submitted via email.

As well as publishing on GOV.UK, invitations to participate were sent directly to known users of HMRC statistics publications such as local authorities, business groups, academia and other government departments.

Users can find further information and advice in the accessibility statement for GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/help/accessibility-statement), as well as contact details should they wish to provide feedback on accessibility or request information in a different format.
