[holding answer 8 March 2000]: Information packs and videos have been produced by the Inland Revenue as part of a comprehensive programme of support for employers involved in administering the Working Families Tax Credit and the Disabled Persons Tax Credit. The total cost of adding tax credits material to the information packs already being sent to employers is £533,000. The total cost of making the video, and of sending a copy directly to smaller employers likely to benefit most from it, is £702,000.

Costs are inclusive of Value Added Tax.
