James Bullock explains the best course of action for resolving a tax dispute

There is a strong argument for pumping extra funds into HMRC’s efforts to reduce the tax gap, according to a leading firm of accountants and business advisers.

A man who set up more than 50 fake tax agent companies to commit a £1m tax fraud has been jailed for two years.

HMRC have been released from an undertaking restricting certain covert activity by the department’s criminal investigators, the Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury announced.

The work of HMRC’s High Net Worth Unit produced ‘additional tax yield’ of £162m in 2010/11, according to a Commons written answer.

HMRC are reminding VAT ‘rule-breakers’ that they must notify HMRC by 30 September that they plan to make a voluntary disclosure if they wish to take part in the disclosure initiative launched in July.
