As a large department, we are using a number of levers to resource EU Exit roles including deployment of current staff and recruitment of new staff. HMRC is well practised at running large recruitment campaigns for operational delivery staff, and capacity to train new recruits is routinely built in to resourcing plans. This includes the number of staff requiring training, the availability of trainers, resources and infrastructure, and the design of training materials.<\/p>

The Customs Declaration Service (CDS) is a top priority programme within government and HMRC receives the support it needs. HMRC is on track to deliver CDS by January 2019, and it will begin to transition businesses from the current Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) service to CDS from August 2018.<\/p>

<\/p>

HMRC manages CDS very closely and has prioritised its delivery for Day 1 of EU exit.

Corporate tax compliance activity is represented across many different areas of HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), the majority of which takes place in HMRC\u2019s Customer Compliance Group.<\/p>

<\/p>

The data below represents the approximate number of inquiries opened into Corporation Tax by HMRC\u2019s Customer Compliance Group:<\/p>

2012-2013 - 9,477<\/p>

2013-2014 - 7,134<\/p>

2014-2015 - 13,408<\/p>

2015-2016 - 14,346<\/p>

2016-2017 - 14,507<\/p>

<\/p>

The compliance yield solely from Corporation Tax inquiries closed in the following years is represented below:<\/p>

2012-2013 - £4.5bn<\/p>

2013-2014 - £5.2bn<\/p>

2014-2015 - £3.9bn<\/p>

2015-2016 - £3.1bn<\/p>

2016-2017 - £4.0bn<\/p>

<\/p>

This does not include the additional Corporation Tax resulting from the Product and Process component of HMRC\u2019s compliance activity. Product and Process Yield is the estimated annual impact on net tax receipts of legislative changes to close tax loopholes and changes to our processes which reduce opportunities to avoid or evade tax.<\/p>

<\/p>

These figures also exclude payments of £100m in 14-15 and £943m in 15-16 following Accelerated Payment Notices issued to the largest businesses.<\/p>

<\/p>

Comparisons should not be made between the numbers of cases opened and the yield amount for the corresponding year. This is because it can take several months to work a case and inquiries opened in a specific year will not necessarily be closed, or settled, in the same year.<\/p>

<\/p>

There are currently around 26,000 people working in HMRC\u2019s Customer Compliance Group tackling all forms of non-compliance in the tax system\u2013 ranging from individuals operating in the hidden economy, through to detailed investigation of offshore structures and scrutinising the tax affairs of the largest multi-national companies. This resource gives HMRC the capability to effectively tackle compliance risks.<\/p>
