§ Mr. Heddleasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will publish in the Official Report the administrative costs in percentage terms of collecting value added tax in businesses with an annual turnover of (a) £30,000, (b) £40,000, (c) £50,000, (d) £60,000, (e) £70,000. (f) £80,000, (g) £90,000 and (h) £100,000, respectively.
§ Mr. HayhoeI regret that detailed records of administrative costs are not maintained by reference to turnover bands and the information requested would be disproportionately expensive to calculate.
