	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2017 answer text <p>HM Revenue &amp; Customs (HMRC) robustly pursues all tax due unless there are compelling reasons not to do so. Where it is discovered that tax is due or uncollected because of official error, HMRC will seek payment in the usual way where statutory time limits allow. The amount of debt remitted or written off each year is small in comparison to the record level of tax receipts.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 12/09/2017 12:50:50 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
