Answer
Research and Development tax reliefs are a vital driver of innovation, growth and productivity and are crucial to the government’s pledge to grow the economy. It’s important that these reliefs are easy to claim and are provided quickly to genuine claimants.
HMRC does not record details of the number of additional requests for information, however, HMRC asks for information only where it is needed to support a claimant in justifying their claim.
