Jane Kennedy , the recently appointed Treasury Minister, has revealed that non-domiciled residents pay £3bn in tax on their £10bn UK income.
The figures, calculated for 2004/2005, are the most recent giving an indication of the value that non-doms create for the economy, even though they pay no tax on foreign income.

The Treasury Select Committee , which has just conducted a series of high profile hearings into private equity, is also expected to investigate the taxation of non-domiciled residents.
