Revenue and Customs: Closures
- Question
-
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the announcement that the Peterlee HMRC office closure will be delayed, which other HMRC offices will have their closures delayed; and if he will make a statement.
- Answer
-
HMRC is confident that its overall strategy of moving to regional centres is correct. There are no current plans to retain any other offices for longer.
HMRC does however recognise that its approach needs to be flexible to ensure it can respond to changing priorities, which may involve closing some offices earlier than originally planned or, as in the case of Peterlee, keeping other offices open later than planned.
On 8 January 2019 HMRC published an updated version of the Locations Programme Issue Briefing on Gov.UK, setting out progress since the previous publication in 2015.
HMRC has also recently updated the Office Closure List which was previously provided to the House of Commons Library in December 2017. It shows the closure year for each office as announced in November 2015 and the updated closure date as at 30 November 2018.
