The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of widening the eligibility criteria for organisations seeking to engage with the HMRC Wealthy External Forum.
Answered by James Murray
The Wealthy External Forum (WEF) is a joint forum between HMRC and a cross-section of professional bodies representing wealthy individuals.
The WEF is focused on discussing the operational processes and technical tax issues that impact wealthy customers. It is not a decision-making body.
Details of the forum, its membership and records of meetings are published on gov.uk: Wealthy External Forum - GOV.UK
The Wealthy External Forum is one of a number of HMRC Stakeholder Forums. This network of forums ensures that HMRC consults with a wide range of external stakeholders.
