From Monday 3 November over 24 million people will start receiving their first Annual Tax Summary from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), which breaks down exactly how their tax is spent by the Exchequer.

8 million taxpayers who complete self-assessment returns will be able to access their tax summary online, while the 16 million PAYE taxpayers who received a tax coding notice from HMRC for 2013 to 2014 will receive their summary in the post over the next seven weeks.

The summaries were first announced by Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne at Budget 2012 in a move to make tax more transparent and easier to understand. They will set out how much tax and National Insurance each person paid in the previous year and how it contributed to public expenditure.

Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said: 'I promised that taxpayers would know much more about how much direct tax they pay and how that money is spent.

'Now we’re delivering on that promise by giving 24m taxpayers a new personal tax summary.

'It is a revolution in transparency and it will show how hardworking taxpayers have to pay for what governments spend.'
