The plans were first announced in the 2009 Budget, and will allow HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) to publish the names, addresses and details of tax evaders on its website. As well as being publicly identified, tax evaders will have to pay the tax, interest on the overdue amount, and penalties of up to 100%. Stephen Timms, Financial Secretary to the Treasury, said, 'We are only targeting deliberate tax evaders. So if you know that you have not paid the right tax, and you want to avoid being named, contact HMRC right away to set things straight'. We can help with all aspects of tax planning, including ensuring that you pay the right amount of tax. Please contact us for assistance. <<  previous article   next article >>   OTHER NEWS 02.09.2010 Workplace parking scheme comes..
