To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 24 November 2016 to Question 53970, on PAYE, when HM Revenue and Customs plans to publish its post-implementation review of Real Time Information.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 24 April 2017 to Question 71092, on PAYE, what proportion of BACS payments are checked using the BACS hash against the payment received in the individual's bank account.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much has been raised from the soft drinks industry levy in the last 12 months; and what estimate he has made of likely revenue from that levy in the next three years.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much has been raised from the soft drinks industry levy in the last 12 months; and what estimate he has made of likely revenue from that levy in the next three years.
The Soft Drinks Industry Levy comes into force in April 2018, and as such has raised no revenue in the last 12 months.
At the Budget in March 2017, the Chancellor announced that the levy is now forecast to raise approximately £385m per annum from April 2018, which is less than the £520m originally forecast due to strong reformulation responses from the industry. This is a central forecast independently verified by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR).
The Government will still fund the Department for Education’s budget with the £1 billion that the levy was originally expected to raise over this Parliament, including money to double the primary schools sports premium and deliver additional funding for school breakfast clubs, and £415 million to be invested in a new healthy pupils capital programme.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many (a) music venues, (b) nightclubs and discoteques and (c) public halls in England have a rateable value of less than £100,000.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many (a) music venues, (b) nightclubs and discoteques and (c) public halls in England have a rateable value of less than £100,000.
There are 349 public halls and 1,158 nightclubs and discotheques with a rateable value less than £100,000 in England, as identified by the categorisation used for compiling the 2017 Rating Lists.
There is no classification specifically for music venues so it is not possible to reliably estimate a number for that category.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, for what reason the rateable value of pubs and restaurants is assessed on the basis of turnover whereas that of other businesses is assessed on profit.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, for what reason the rateable value of pubs and restaurants is assessed on the basis of turnover whereas that of other businesses is assessed on profit.
The Rateable Value of a property is the annual rent it would achieve if let on the open market at a valuation date set in law. The Valuation Office Agency (VOA) determine Rateable Values by referring to rents agreed on similar properties in the local area. Most non-domestic properties, such as offices, shops and restaurants, are assessed on the basis of their rental value per square metre in line with what happens in the rental market.
Rents paid for public houses are also used to determine the appropriate Rateable Value. The approach of valuing per square metre is not used as the market uses trading potential (turnover) to determine levels of rent. This is a recognised way of valuing pubs and has been agreed between the VOA and a number of trade associations.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of a Norwegian-style oil exploration tax rebate system for encouraging further oil exploration in the UK sector of the North Sea.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of a Norwegian-style oil exploration tax rebate system for encouraging further oil exploration in the UK sector of the North Sea.
The Government recognises the importance of exploration and appraisal activity to the future of the oil and gas industry. The best way to support this is through a competitive tax regime, rewarding exploration by improving the economics of new discoveries.
Since 2014, the Government has significantly cut tax rates for the oil and gas sector and introduced a new Investment Allowance, reducing the effective tax rate paid by producers at the exploration stage. The UK now has one of the most competitive tax regimes for oil and gas in the world.
The Government has also funded two £20m programmes of seismic surveys, across 2015 and 2016. The data and analysis from these surveys will help to support activity in under-explored areas of the UK Continental Shelf.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much tax and business rates private and public schools saved as a result of their charitable status in each of the last five years.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much tax and business rates private and public schools saved as a result of their charitable status in each of the last five years.
This information is not available. The data that HM Revenue and Customs hold on charitable donations and associated tax reliefs cannot be broken down into such sector specific details.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to review the effect of the Enterprise Investment Scheme on energy businesses; and if he will make a statement.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to review the effect of the Enterprise Investment Scheme on energy businesses; and if he will make a statement.
Energy generation is not a qualifying activity for the tax advantaged venture capital schemes, including the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS). The purpose of this rule is to ensure that the tax reliefs offered through the schemes are well targeted towards encouraging investment into companies that struggle to access the finance they need to grow. Companies that develop energy generation technology may still qualify for the schemes.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many people by health condition were in receipt of a tax exemption or reduction for a disability vehicle in each of the last three years.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many people by health condition were in receipt of a tax exemption or reduction for a disability vehicle in each of the last three years.
HM Treasury does not hold this information. Eligibility for Vehicle Excise Duty exemption or reduction is based on whether the individual receives certain mobility allowances and not the individual’s specific health condition.
