uin	247154
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/04/2019 answer text <p>The Disclosure of Tax Avoidance Scheme (DOTAS) regime generally does not expressly require disclosers to tell HMRC whether a scheme involves a trust. HMRC review all disclosures under DOTAS and challenges schemes as appropriate as part of its risk based compliance strategy.</p><p> </p><p>Analysis at the point of disclosure indicates that around a third of the avoidance schemes disclosed under DOTAS rules since 2014 include trusts. However, the use of a trust may not be a material component of the scheme or arrangements being disclosed under DOTAS, the exact use of a trust will in many cases only become clear on further investigation.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 29/04/2019 15:12:01 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
