A new call for evidence invites views on how some aspects of tax administration could be reformed as part of the government commitment to establish a trusted and modern tax administration system.
Based on the responses received to the initial call for evidence in March 2021 and a series of follow-up engagements with stakeholders to explore those responses in more detail, HMRC has identified several reform opportunities in relation to its enquiry and assessment powers, penalties and safeguards.
The government believes reform in these areas has the potential ‘to simplify and modernise aspects of the tax administration framework, providing greater certainty and consistency, bolstering drivers to comply and, ultimately, helping to support and increase trust in the tax system’.
Responses should be emailed by 9 May 2024 to tafrcompliance@hmrc.gov.uk.
