HM Revenue and Customs published its latest tax gap estimates on 16 October 2014 in 'Measuring Tax Gaps' 2014 edition: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/364009/4382_Measuring_Tax_Gaps_2014_IW_v4B_accessible_20141014.pdf<\/a><\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Estimates of the UK tax gap for each type of tax are provided from 2005-06 to 2012-13. In 2012-13 the overall UK tax gap was estimated at £34 billion, 6.8 per cent of total tax due. Within this, the tax gap due to Inheritance Tax was estimated at £300 million. A time series can be found on table 8.1, page 70.<\/p>

HMRC do not break down any of the estimates by country.<\/p>

The Government takes the enforcement of National Minimum Wage very seriously. Any worker who believes that they are being paid below the minimum wage should make a complaint to the Pay & Work Rights Helpline on 0800 917 2368. HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) review every complaint that is referred to them by the Pay and Work Rights Helpline. In addition, HMRC conducts risk-based enforcement activities in sectors or areas where there is a higher risk of workers not getting paid the legal minimum wage.<\/p>

The Autumn Statement 2014 announced that all community energy generation undertaken by qualifying organisations will be eligible for Social Investment Tax Relief (SITR) with effect from the date of the expansion of SITR, at which point it will cease to be eligible for the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS), the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) or the Venture Capital Trust scheme (VCTs).<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Co-operatives do not qualify for SITR as they are run for the benefit of their members rather than for the benefit of the community. However, co-operatives with a social purpose and which meet other criteria can convert to a community benefit society by free application to the FCA. Those that remain co-operatives and benefit from subsidies for the generation of renewable energy will no longer be eligible for EIS, SEIS and VCTs once State aid approval is received for the expansion of SITR.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The government is currently considering appropriate arrangements to ensure that there is a smooth transition for community energy activities from EIS, SEIS and VCTs to SITR.<\/p>
