Question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) which HM Revenue and Customs offices are planned to close under the Workforce Change programme;
Answer
The aim of HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) Workforce Change regional review programme was to match its accommodation with its future business needs. The following table provides a list of the HMRC offices announced for closure under the regional review programme. Decisions made to close these offices remain unchanged.HMRC has however looked again at the timing of the closures of a number of these offices in the light of budgetary constraints, and has decided that the vacation of some offices will not now take place in 2009-10 as originally planned. This does not affect the strategic decision to close these buildings, which HMRC aims to complete in 2010-11.Where an office housing an inquiry centre closes, the inquiry centre services will be retained at or near the current location so face to face services to HMRC's customers will not be affected.
