WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TREASURY AND RESOURCES BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 4TH JULY 2017
Question
Following the publication of Jersey Resident Population – 2016 Estimate', will the Minister provide for each of the last 10 years the average amount of Income Tax contribution credited to the Consolidated Fund in respect of people entering work who have moved to Jersey?
Answer
The Taxes Office system does not differentiate between newly-registered taxpayers. It is not possible therefore separately to identify, in respect of any year, "people entering work" from different routes (school, university, UK employment etc). The numbers will also include newly registered taxpayers that have been registered for a reason other than having entered work.
The table below shows the best information available at this time from the Taxes Office system. It includes all newly registered taxpayers by year of registration and the total tax payable by those taxpayers for that year of assessment.
The replacement for the current Taxes Office system will allow a greater ability to request, hold and interrogate data.
Year of registration | Newly registered taxpayers | TAX 2007 | TAX 2008 | TAX 2009 | TAX 2010 | TAX 2011 | TAX 2012 | TAX 2013 | TAX 2014 | TAX 2015 | TAX 2016 |

Further notes on the table:
- Count rounded to nearest 50
- The count is of taxpayers and not individuals. One "taxpayer" could therefore be two individuals if married or in a civil partnership.
- A taxpayer is included in the count irrespective of whether they have a positive tax liability or are exempt to tax in the year of assessment.
