Welcome to the All-Party Parliamentary Taxation Group

The goal of the APPG Taxation is to look at and understand tax policy and taxation at all levels; to understand VAT and PAYE in the UK; to contact and talk to accountants and Revenue officials; to look at European tax affairs and international taxation.

The APPG Taxation is made up of Members of Parliament and Peers interested in taxation issues. The purpose of this website is to share some of our current work and invite futher participation. If you are a Member, peer or outside stakeholder, please contact the group to get involved.

Our latest report, published 16 March 2011, examines how the PAYE system needs to modernise and change to cope with the demands of 21st Century working patterns. It concludes that by improving data quality HMRC can significantly enhance the level of service it offers to its customers, reduce error and make efficiency savings. We are currently soliciting feedback on the report and we would encourage you send any to liddelli@parliament.uk. All feedback will be posted on this website along with the report.
