HC Deb 27 June 2000 vol 352 c478W
Mr. Matthew Taylor

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what estimate he has made of tax revenue lost to the UK Exchequer as a result of tax evasion; and if he will make a statement. [127603]

Dawn Primarolo

No such estimate has been made. There is no generally accepted method of producing an estimate sufficiently reliable to be of value.
