HMRCs expanding powers in tackling tax avoidance schemes—Solicitor's Journal
Associate Semin Kaycin has written an article in the Solicitor's Journal exploring the implications of the Finance Bill 2024 focusing on HMRC's expanding powers in tackling tax avoidance schemes. The article delves into the proposed amendments, including the creation of a new criminal offence for promoters of tax avoidance schemes and the empowerment of HMRC to initiate director disqualification proceedings, shedding light on the potential impact on tax enforcement strategies.
The proposed Finance Bill 2024 will add a further string to the bow of HMRC in tackling POTAS by granting them and the courts greater powers in restricting those who engage in high risk' tax avoidance schemes through the criminal courts."
The full article is available to view via an online PDF from Solicitor's Journal.
