answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/02/2018 answer text <p>The UK has taken unprecedented action on tax transparency. Thanks to UK leadership, over 100 jurisdictions have now committed to automatically exchange tax information through the Common Reporting Standard. To encourage jurisdictions to commit to tax transparency standards, the UK has supported lists of non-co-operative jurisdictions at both the G20 and EU. The UK supports work in the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes and World Bank to help implement these standards, as well as directly supporting pilot projects to implement the common reporting standard in Ghana, Pakistan, and Nigeria.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 01/02/2018 14:52:08 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
