Finance (No. 2) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Peter Dowd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 December 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance (No. 2) Bill.

The hon. Gentleman is right. The only people to whom the Government seem to pay attention are the DUP and right-wing Tories.

The bottom line is that, since 2010, HMRC’s staffing levels have been reduced by 17%. The Bill creates even more powers for revenue and customs officers, with even more work, but very little if any resource to go with it.
