Institute writes to new HMRC CEO

Ahead of HMRC’s Annual Stakeholder Conference which takes place in London tomorrow, the Institute has written a letter of introduction to HMRC’s new CEO setting out four key issues on its agenda. The Institute will be represented at the conference and will report back on the conference in next week’s Chartered Accountants Tax News. This year the conference theme is “Navigating the future together: the Transformation Roadmap in Action”. 

The four key issues covered in the letter to JP Marks are:

• The Institute’s campaign for a lower rate of corporation tax in Northern Ireland,
• The tax burden and complexity arising from cross-border and remote/hybrid working,
• Tax simplification and the lack of progress in this area, and
• Making Tax Digital for Income Tax and the implementation of mandatory tax adviser registration from 1 April 2026.
