Tax Avoidance

Proceeding contribution from Caroline Lucas (Green Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2015. It occurred during Opposition day on Tax Avoidance.

I welcome the proposal for an anti-tax-dodging Bill, to which the motion refers. Does the hon. Lady support the idea of country-by-country reporting requirements, which I proposed in a private Member’s Bill a few years ago? They could at least have helped to show just how dependent HSBC was on Switzerland, and begun to ring alarm bells for the tax authorities at a much earlier stage.
