Multinational Companies: Taxation

Asked by Lloyd HattonLabourTreasuryTabled Answered 21 January 2025UIN 23626

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether she plans to require public country-by-country reporting by multinational corporations on (a) taxation and (b) where companies are (i) trading and (ii) making profits.

Answered by James Murray

The UK is at the forefront of Pillar 2 implementation, ensuring that large multinational enterprises are subject to an effective tax rate of at least 15% in each jurisdiction they operate. The government does not have plans to make country-by-country reports public, but will keep the position under review.
