uin	54789
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/11/2016 answer text <p>Air Passenger Duty (APD) is a tax levied on airlines with respect to any passengers departing from a UK airport. Airlines aggregate their full APD liabilities when making payments, and there is no requirement on them to attribute this to particular flights. The government does not believe that any benefits from reforming the reporting process would outweigh the additional administrative burdens on taxpayers.</p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 30/11/2016 16:59:21 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison
