The questioner specifically asked about a turnover tax on online trading. What is the Government’s response to that suggestion?
The questioner specifically asked about a turnover tax on online trading. What is the Government’s response to that suggestion?
I have outlined the Government’s response to the suggestion, which is that high streets have found numerous ways of responding to the different patterns on our high street. Many chains on the high street are in fact benefiting from things like click and collect.

These figures have been calculated using a number of assumptions. Costs which are directly attributable to particular outlets have been allocated to those outlets. Some central costs have been split between each of the outlets, banqueting and retail services. Others are assigned to administration and kitchen central cost centres, whose combined contribution was -£549,179. Different assumptions could, of course, produce a different set of figures, but these have been used consistently for management information since April 2008.
