Revenue and Customs: Whitehaven

Question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will take account of the spare capacity at Whitehaven HM Revenue and Customs Office in distributing that Department's workload.
Answer

HMRC has surplus office space in many areas, including Whitehaven, following the merger of two departments and the staff efficiency savings since April 2004. The current availability of additional office capacity is clearly an issue in considering future plans but the main drivers are future business needs and current staffing.
