Taxation: Self-assessment
(asked on 11th July 2017) - View Source
Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what changes there have been to the number of tax returns submitted on time in the last 10 years.
The information for the years to 31 January 2008 (Tax Return Year 2006-07) and 31 January 2009 (Tax Return Year 2007-08) has been archived. It would be disproportionately costly to provide the information for these years as it is not held in an accessible form. The information for the remaining years is as follows:
