HC Deb 24 October 1973 vol 861 c533W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what estimate he makes of the level of tax evasion at the present time in the United Kingdom and what information is available to him about levels of tax evasion at recent dates in the USA, EEC, Japan or any other major foreign country.

Mr. Nott

It is impossible to estimate the level of tax evasion.
