No VAT paid on Manx-registered aircraft for six years

The government's revealed those registering aircraft on the Isle of Man haven't paid a penny in VAT for the past six years.

A freedom of information request to the Treasury asked how many aircraft had been given 100 per cent VAT rebates since 2011.

In its answer, the Treasury revealed every one imported to the EU via the Island had entirely avoided VAT - at a total of £790.1 million.

This weekend, the BBC's Panorama will broadcast an investigation into tax avoidance involving the Isle of Man.
