To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent estimate he has made of the amount of revenue lost to the Exchequer through landfill tax fraud in the last 12 months.
Gareth Davies
The Exchequer Secretary
HM Revenue & Customs publishes estimates of the amount of Landfill Tax revenue lost as part of its annual Measuring Tax Gaps report. The most recent estimate gives a Landfill Tax gap of 18.4% of the theoretical Landfill Tax liability, or £150 million in the 2021 to 2022 tax year. The Landfill Tax gap is based on an experimental methodology and has high uncertainty.
