Taxis: VAT
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether her Department produced an impact assessment prior to the Supreme Court judgment in DELTA Merseyside Ltd v Uber Britannia Ltd on the application of VAT to private hire vehicle journeys.
Answered by Dan Tomlinson
The Government continues to take this complex issue very seriously and recognises businesses’ need for certainty.
The Government is carefully considering the wide range of views shared through last year's consultation on the VAT Treatment of Private Hire Vehicles and will publish a detailed response soon.
