Tax Evasion
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many businesses have been found criminally liable for failing to prevent the facilitation of tax evasion in the last 12 months.
Answered by Sir Nicholas Dakin
The Ministry of Justice publishes data on the number of convictions for criminal offences, however, offences specifically relating to ‘failing to prevent the facilitation of tax evasion’ are not separately identifiable from information held centrally. This information may be held on court records, but to examine individual court records would be of disproportionate costs.
