Google is still ‘paying a rate of tax that belies its significant presence and business transactions​ in the UK’, said Meg Hillier, chair of the House of Commons public accounts committee in a statement on publication of Google’s latest set of UK accounts.

Google is still ‘paying a rate of tax that belies its significant presence and business transactions​ in the UK’, said Meg Hillier, chair of the House of Commons public accounts committee in a statement on publication of Google’s latest set of UK accounts. The company paid corporation tax of £25 million on UK revenues of around £6 billion in the year to June 2016.

‘This is why the PAC is working internationally to press for greater tax transparency so that we can all see clearly how much tax corporations pay and where’, said the statement.
