In a recent First Tier Tax ('FTT') tribunal case [Casa Di Vini Ltd TC/2017/02903], HMRC provided information as to the number of AWRS applications, made, granted, granted with conditions and refused. Of these, 9486 had been approved (66 of which with conditions) and 1,250 refused.
The FTT were not given any information as to the outcome of the 1,500 or so applications which do not appear in the numbers of approvals or refusals - the FTT inferred that they might be pending a decision, refusals which are being appealed to the Tribunal, or withdrawn before any decision was made.
