Disguised Remuneration Loan Charge Review

Question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps he is taking to ensure the impartiality of the leader of the inquiry into loan charge schemes.

Answer

The Chancellor has commissioned Sir Amyas Morse, former CEO of the National Audit Office, to lead an independent Review to consider the impact of the Loan Charge, focusing on individuals who entered directly into disguised remuneration schemes.

Sir Amyas is widely respected, as was emphasised by colleagues across the House in a debate of 6 March 2019.

Sir Amyas has full control over how the Review is run and the outcome. For more information, the Review’s terms of reference can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/disguised-remuneration-independent-loan-charge-review
