Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to his oral contribution of 23 September 2022 on the floor of the House, Growth Plan, what estimate he has made of the number of beneficiaries of the abolition of the additional rate of income tax who are resident in (a) Cynon Valley constituency, (b) Rhondda Cynon Taf local authority and (c) Wales.

In 2022-23, there are projected to be 9,000 additional rate taxpayers in Wales, which includes the parliamentary constituency of Cynon Valley and local authority of Rhondda Cynon Taf. This information can be found in table 2.2 of the national statistics: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/number-of-individual-income-taxpayers-by-marginal-rate-gender-and-age-by-country.

HM Treasury does not publish this information at constituency or local authority level.
