HC Deb 21 June 1996 vol 279 cc633-4W
Mrs. Ann Taylor

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will list, in ranked order, those tax offices in Yorkshire that have achieved the targets set by the taxpayers charter. [33622]

Mr. Jack

[holding answer 20 June 1996]: The taxpayers charter sets out the general principles by which the Inland Revenue operates. To meet commitments under the charter, individual areas of work are targeted. The targets are published and included in the operating plan of each regional executive office. In order to achieve the performance set out in the operating plans, targets are set for each tax office. As these vary depending on the individual circumstances in each office, it is not possible to draw any comparison between the performance of individual offices.
