Taxation: Double Taxation

My honourable friend the Financial Secretary to the Treasury (Mark Hoban) has today made the following Written Ministerial Statement. A double taxation agreement with Germany was signed on 7 December 2011 in relation to both countries’ bank levies. The text of the agreement has been deposited in the Libraries of both Houses and made available on HM Revenue and Customs’ website. The text will be annexed as a Schedule to a Treasury Order and laid before the House of Commons in due course.
