Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what proportion of the paper purchased each year by HM Revenue and Customs for the purpose of printing and sending letters to people and businesses is partially or fully recycled paper.

As an ecologically conscious consumer, HMRC has ensured that all paper purchased by our supplier was from mills that are accredited by either the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification or the Forest Stewardship Council.

HMRC’s Customer Communications supplier ensures that the paper meets ISO 14001, which is the international standard for environmental management, within their own supply chain.
