A former Google employee has said that he will provide evidence to the UK tax authorities regarding how the company avoided paying taxes in the country.
The BBC reported that Barney Jones, who worked as sales executive at Google from 2002 to 2006, claimed that some arrangements were completed in the UK when he was working.
Google executive chairman Eric Schmidt is scheduled to meet UK Prime Minister David Cameron at the quarterly meeting of Business Advisory Group at Downing Street, London.
Last week, the UK Public Accounts Committee (PAC) accused Google of manipulating its business in the country to avoid paying taxes.
Google reportedly generated more than $18bn in revenue from the UK sales between 2006 and 2011, but paid just $16m in taxes.
Google UK chief executive Matt Brittin was called back for the second time to testify after a Reuters investigation highlighted inconsistencies in the company’s tax arrangements in the UK.
Brittin denied allegations of misleading parliament and stood by the claim he made in November 2012 that the company was not taxed on the profits of its advertising business in the UK, because the sales were made from Ireland.
