New HMRC taskforces

HMRC has announced four new taskforces to investigate tax evasion in specific commercial and geographical sectors. The taskforces bring together various compliance and enforcement teams for what they term intensive bursts of targeted activity.

The new taskforces are localised and cover the following:

  • Holiday industry in Blackpool, Lake District, North Wales, Devon and Cornwall
  • Restaurants in Yorkshire and Humber
  • Road hauliers in the Midlands
  • Fishing industry in Scotland

If you know anyone involved in the above sectors who has tax concerns they want to put right, please ask them to contact us for help.
