Wider reform of UK enquiry regime is needed

That’s according to the Institute’s Northern Ireland Tax Committee chaired by Janette Burns when the Committee responded last week to the UK Government’s consultation ‘Reform of behavioural penalties’. A series of recommendations featured in the submission with the Committee concluding that the UK Government should implement more broad ranging reform of its enquiry regime, including behavioural penalties, by introducing a more graduated and tailored level of compliance interventions, similar to the regime currently in place in Ireland. The Committee also advocates that there is a need for the Government to do more to tackle tax complexity which can be a factor when a taxpayer makes an error that results in a penalty. In summary, the key recommendations are as follows: The minimum penalties for certain inaccuracies and failures to notify should be removed, No failure to notify penalty should be charged if a taxpayer pays the associated tax liability on time or has filed on time, even if they have not notified by the relevant deadline, A fixed reduction to each maximum penalty should be introduced based on the type of disclosure made by the taxpayer, HMRC should explore how fairer penalties can be introduced for the same error made in multiple tax years, The two categories of deliberate behaviour should be combined into one category and a more simplified regime should be introduced for taxpayers making a full unprompted disclosure in this category, Ireland should be excluded from the definition of offshore. Lower penalties should also be introduced for offshore inaccuracies, particularly where these are asset based. In addition, the offshore time limits should be reduced, Penalty suspension should be offered for careless errors on a routine basis and the conditions which must be met should be consistently applied and clearly set out in guidance so that the taxpayer and agent know what to expect and what will be required of the taxpayer, No new non-financial sanctions should be introduced, HMRC should conduct a full review of both the publishing deliberate defaulters legislation and the Managing Serious Defaulters Programme to assess their effectiveness as non-financial sanctions with a view to introducing reforms and improvements to each of these, A review should be conducted of the rates of interest charged and paid by HMRC which should also address the interaction with behavioural penalties, and A range of measures should be undertaken to tackle tax complexity, which should as a minimum include the establishment of a Tax Simplification External Forum reporting annually to Parliament.

Northern Ireland corporation tax: members share their perspectives

As we reported last week, the Institute officially launched its latest policy paper on 12 June ‘Enhancing Our Competitiveness – The Case for a Reduced Rate of Corporation Tax in Northern Ireland’. This is a key strategic objective in our lobbying activity reflecting the fact that in a survey of our members in February, 60 percent continue to signal their support for the activation of NI’s devolved powers to set its own corporation tax rate. Members who attended the launch in Belfast have been sharing their perspectives on why the time is right and how the economy will benefit.

IAASA has published an overview of some of its more significant financial reporting enforcement activities undertaken in 2023 and 2024. Auditing and Assurance The Staff of the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA) have released new publications to support implementation of the IAASB’s and IESBA’s sustainability-related standards: the International Standard on Sustainability Assurance (ISSA) 5000 and the International Ethics Standards for Sustainability Assurance (IESSA).   These are Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on Sustainability Assurance Engagements and IESBA Staff Q&As on IESSA. The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) has issued a consultation on a proposed UK version of the International Standard on Sustainability Assurance (ISSA) 5000, “General Requirements for Sustainability Assurance Engagements”. The consultation proposes ISSA (UK) 5000 for use on a voluntary basis by assurance providers and comments are requested by 31 July 2025. Sustainability The IFRS Foundation is joining London Climate Action Week from 21–29 June 2025.  This event will bring together key stakeholders, policymakers and international organisations. The European Sustainable Energy Week 2025 takes place from 10 to 12 June 2025 in Brussels and online. It brings together leading voices from the clean energy community and high-level speakers to share ideas and help shape Europe’s sustainable energy future.  The IFRS Foundation has published jurisdictional profiles providing transparency and evidencing progress towards adoption of ISSB Standards. The IFRS Foundation has launched new e-learning modules to support companies in getting started with understanding the ISSB Standards. The modules include a mixture of written and visual content and interactive knowledge checks, designed to build foundational knowledge of the ISSB Standards. Accountancy Europe has published its June 2025 Sustainability Update. Anti-money laundering, sanctions, economic crime In June 2025 the EU Commission updated its list of high-risk jurisdictions which present strategic deficiencies in their national anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism regimes. Click for a press release and here for a  copy of the delegated regulation (which delegated act enters into force if the European Parliament or the Council of the EU do not object to it, during the scrutiny period which generally lasts 2 months ). The following countries have been added to the list: Algeria, Angola, Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Laos, Lebanon, Monaco, Namibia, Nepal and Venezuela. The following countries have been removed from the list: Barbados, Gibraltar, Jamaica, Panama, the Philippines, Senegal, Uganda, and the United Arab Emirates. Accountancy Europe (AE) has responded to the European Banking Authority’s (EBA) consultation on new rules related to the anti- money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism package. Accountancy Europe’s response to the EBA consultation has focused replies on the draft regulatory technical standard (RTS) on Customer Due Diligence and in particular identified four RTS articles that would benefit from clarification, refinement, or more proportionality. In June 2025 the UK Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI) launched six short sanctions videos highlighting six key areas dealing with financial sanctions. The videos will give users valuable insight into the essentials of complying with UK financial sanctions. The videos  detail the work carried out at OFSI and how financial sanctions work, provide an insight into the range of  guidance that OFSI produces to help individuals and companies comply with UK financial sanctions, give an overview of the sanctions consolidated list, outline what to do if you suspect a financial sanctions breach and give an introduction to general licences and detail what a specific licence is and how to apply for one. Click the link for details of the UK Government’s improvements to navigation of GOV.UK sanctions content following a cross-government review and an ask from users for clearer, better structured sanctions content. In June 2025 the UK Dept. for Business and Trade issued its second progress report on the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023. The report describes Companies House activity including the querying and removal of  false, misleading or incorrect information from the registers, with an impact on 100,400 companies from 4 March 2024 to 3 March 2025 inclusive. The report also includes information on limited partnership reform, the register of overseas entities and collaboration between Companies House and the Insolvency Service. New or proposed legislation The Minister for Children, Disability and Equality recently implemented the European Union (Gender Balance on Boards of Certain Companies) Regulations 2025. These regulations impose new gender balance requirements for boards of listed companies by 30 June 2026. The regulations do not apply to micro, small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) or unlisted companies. Under the regulations relevant listed companies must have the objective that at least 40% of the non-executive directors of the relevant listed company concerned are members of the underrepresented sex. The ‘28th regime’ a new EU legal framework for innovative companies is  a proposed legal framework that is additional to the national legal frameworks of the 27 Member States .It was referenced in the European Commission’s Competitiveness Compass of January 2025 and its work programme of February 2025. The idea behind it is that the EU will  offer a parallel, elective legal framework that businesses can choose to operate under simplifying applicable rules and  bypassing the different national legal frameworks. In June 2025 the EU Commissioner for Justice Democracy and the rule of law, Michael Mc Grath, appointed Dr Tom Courtney a solicitor, leading author on Irish Company law and previous chair of the Irish Company Law Review Group as his special adviser to advise him on the proposal for a new 28th regime company. Dr Courtney writes that this is a very important EU initiative to make it possible for companies to benefit from a simpler harmonised set of EU wide rules. The UK Companies and Limited Liability Partnerships (Annotation) Regulations 2025 (2025 Regulations) allows the UK Registrar of Companies to annotate the Register of Companies. Under the Companies Act 2006, the Registrar currently has the authority to issue notices requiring specific information from overseas entities within a time limit set by the Registrar. Under the 2025 Regulations the Registrar may annotate the Register to indicate that a notice to the Overseas Entity was issued and not complied with. Other power of annotation under the 2025 Regulations includes the annotation of the Register that a person who appears in the Register as a director is subject to director disqualification sanctions. Other news The Central Bank of Ireland has in June 2025 issued its Central Bank second quarterly bulletin headlining slower pace of domestic growth amid trade tensions and global uncertainty. The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland has launched a new series of guides designed to help charity trustees run their organisations effectively and in line with their legal duties. The June edition of Enterprise Newsletter from Enterprise Ireland has been published.     The Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment Peter Burke has established The Cost of Business Advisory Forum with the aim of reducing the cost of running a business and addressing delays which can impact the operation of businesses in Ireland. The Group will be chaired by former Labour Court Judge Kevin Foley and the group includes representatives from Chartered Accountants Ireland. We recently reported that the Irish Companies Registration Office has launched an Open Data Portal which provides access to key company data. Please click here for a useful article by CLS Chartered Secretaries which gives examples of the types of information available on the portal and practical tips to make the most of the portal. Accountancy Europe has outlined its support of the ongoing work of the European Union Intellectual Property Office and has compiled some key points, conclusions and actions for the future in its recent publication. Accountancy Europe has also published an information paper covering the evolution and impact of private equity investment in the European accountancy profession over the last decade. The Irish National Cyber Security Centre has launched  a useful  ‘plain English’ guide to keeping your online accounts secure designed to make the often complex and confusing information around keeping online accounts secure more accessible to the public. Technical Roundup is taking a break for the summer and the next Roundup will be issued on Friday 5 September.

Institute’s Air Travel Organisers Licence (ATOL) Reporting Regulations updated

The Institute has revised its Air Travel Organisers Licence (ATOL) Reporting Regulations with effect from 15 June 2025.  The revisions at this time are conforming amendments to align with the Institute’s suite of Regulations generally.  In particular, the ATOL Reporting Regulations are revised to reflect a simplification of the Institute’s affiliate regime across all Institute Regulations.  The simplification of the affiliate regime includes the following: A single category of ‘affiliate’ is now being used across all Institute Regulations.  Therefore, the revised ATOL Reporting Regulations refer to ‘affiliates’ where appropriate rather than ‘ATOL Registered Firm affiliate’. Across all Institute Regulations, it is a requirement that each principal at a firm regulated by the Institute should be either a member of the Institute or an affiliate - there is no longer an exemption from affiliate status for members of other professional accountancy bodies for example.  Therefore, the ATOL Reporting Regulations require each principal at an ATOL Registered Firm to be either a member of the Institute or an affiliate of the Institute. The obligations of all affiliates are be set out in a single place in Institute Regulations – that is chapter 7 of the Public Practice Regulations .  Therefore chapter 4 of the Institute’s ATOL Reporting Regulations is simplified as regards affiliate requirements and reference is made instead to the Public Practice Regulations. Institute firms can direct any queries in relation to the Institute’s Air Travel Organisers Licence (ATOL) Reporting Regulations to professionalstandards@charteredaccountants.ie.

HMRC publishes provisional update on phone performance

Ahead of the publication of its annual report and accounts which usually takes place in July, last week HMRC published a provisional update on its phone performance. The update was published just the day before HMRC experienced a major phone outage on Wednesday 4 June. The outage happened on the same day that HMRC senior officials appeared before the House of Commons Treasury Committee.   According to the provisional update, in March 2025, HMRC handled 80.2 percent of calls, up from 71.5 percent for the year to 31 March 2025. The Department took 14 minutes and 44 seconds on average to answer a call, down from 18 minutes and 38 seconds for the year to 31 March 2025.  At HMRC’s Treasury Committee hearing, it was stressed that the phone outage on Wednesday was not related to the announcement of the loss of £47 million as a result of phishing attacks and that the lines themselves were not down but had instead been closed because the system used to handle incoming calls had experienced an outage. According to the appearance, the phone line set up for recipients of the phishing fraud letter was unaffected.  The news of the recent phishing scam and HMRC’s customer service levels were discussed at the Treasury Committee hearing in addition to:  HMRC's priorities for the next three to five years,  HMRC’s collection of taxes from wealthy individuals following the recent publication of a National Audit Office Report,  The exodus of wealthy taxpayers from the UK, and  HMRC delays in processing refunds.   HMRC’s new Permanent Secretary and CEO JP Marks appeared in front of Committee for the first time last week. A full transcript from the hearing has not yet been published but will be available here.

Taxpayer phishing scam results in loss of £47 million for HMRC

Last week HMRC contacted the Institute ahead of the announcement that taxpayers have been targeted by criminals creating and/or accessing their online HMRC accounts to set out what had happened and what action it was taking. HMRC’s security systems detected unauthorised access to some online accounts (particularly inactive accounts), and the creation of new credentials, which has ultimately resulted in approximately £47 million in fraudulent tax repayments being paid out. This loss has been directly suffered by HMRC and not individual taxpayers.  Between 4 and 25 June 2025, HMRC is contacting affected individuals by letter to explain the incident, including how they can restore access to their online accounts if necessary. The full briefing received by the Institute from HMRC is available here. In discussions with HMRC we were also made aware that a much larger sum of over double the amount lost in fraudulent repayments was stopped by HMRC during this incident.    The letters being sent also explain how the person can contact HMRC if they have any concerns. Only those individuals with affected accounts are being contacted. Anyone receiving contact from HMRC can check if the letter is genuine on GOV.UK.   According to HMRC, it has protected the affected accounts by deleting the associated log-in credentials i.e. the government gateway user ID and password. Any incorrect information has also been removed from the individuals’ tax records, and a check has been performed that no other details were changed.   HMRC provided more information on this incident during an evidence hearing of the House of Commons Treasury Committee last week. According to this, the criminals involved used information obtained from non-HMRC sources via phishing attacks on individuals as opposed to this being a cyber breach of HMRC systems. The attack has impacted on around 100,000 individuals, mostly in PAYE, at a cost of £47 million in fraudulent repayments. Overall, in its evidence to the Committee, HMRC says that it protected the loss of nearly £2 billion in criminal attacks in 2024/25.  Often the taxpayer did not have an active online tax account hence the criminals set up new accounts and credentials. HMRC has also said that work on this issue has been ongoing for some time, with some arrests made in 2024. Discussions with HMRC also highlighted that the majority of the taxpayers involved are not represented by an agent and comprise 0.22 percent of all online tax accounts.

Chartered Accountants Ireland among local businesses calling on Council to act and create a safer, greener Pearse Street

Green Pearse Street group of nearly 20 businesses calling for thoughtful planning 10 days after traffic changes present new opportunities for major thoroughfare     Thursday 5 June 2025 – A local group, Green Pearse Street, comprising nearly 20 businesses, is calling on Dublin City Council and local stakeholders to make Pearse Street greener, more vibrant and more engaging for street users - and to take meaningful action on the climate and biodiversity crises. The call comes on World Environment Day, just ten days after new traffic management changes were introduced on the street, allowing only public transport, taxis and cyclists to turn left onto Pearse Street from Westland Row. In support of the initiative, Lord Mayor of Dublin, Emma Blain, and Green Party leader Roderic O’Gorman TD were in attendance, underlining the importance of collaboration between civic leaders and local communities to reimagine urban space. To demonstrate how a section of Pearse Street can be transformed into a more social and eco-friendly space, the group showcased potential areas for urban planting and seating, bringing greenery onto the pavement in front of Trinity’s Biomedical Sciences Institute. This simple intervention illustrates how public areas can become more welcoming while supporting biodiversity. Members of the group also highlighted spaces - including basements and railed-off areas in front of buildings - where Dublin City Council and private businesses could introduce planting to foster microhabitats and attract pollinators. Green Pearse Street is calling on the Council to take further action to prioritise urban seating and greening - measures that would benefit not only the local environment, but also the economy and community wellbeing.   Lord Mayor of Dublin, Emma Blain said: “Dublin City is more than a network of roads, it’s a living, breathing community. It is crucial that our streets be accessible to cyclists, pedestrians, and public transport as well as to cars and other road users. Clean air and space for nature are equally vital. Together, we can create a healthier, more vibrant city where nature and community flourish, inspiring everyone to live and move in harmony”. Susan Rossney, Sustainability Advocacy Manager with Chartered Accountants Ireland said: “Businesses are integral to the wellbeing of our society, economy and environment, but nature and biodiversity are equally vital for the survival of businesses. 55% of the world’s GDP – equivalent to an estimated US$58 trillion – is dependent on nature and biodiversity.” “At a time when climate and biodiversity action is threatened, the public and private sectors need to work harder than ever to protect it. Getting started can be daunting, but groups like Green Pearse Street can share practical tips on how to set up and maintain green teams, what plants are good for pollinating insects and even how to connect with Dublin Simon to donate bottles and cans under the Deposit Return scheme.” Commenting, Dr Miriam Fitzpatrick, lecturer and researcher in architecture and urban design, said: “If Dubliners dream of a safer, greener, more civic city life, the street is where that dream begins. Green Pearse Street is hoping to lead the way. Pearse Street reflects the broader condition of Dublin’s city centre, shaped more by traffic flow than care for health or hospitality. Progress has come from local efforts, with many local businesses introducing planting. However, individual gestures are not enough. Four lanes of traffic, inadequate lighting, barriers to access, actively hostile edges and a lack of places to sit continue to define the street.” “Streets and parks are low-intensity battlegrounds. Without leadership, residents and businesses must guide themselves. This is not a celebration; it is a call to action. Pearse Street could be a vital link from the thriving docklands to the city’s historic heart; it deserves to be more liveable and green.” ENDS About Green Pearse Street Green Pearse Street is a diverse group of local businesses and organisations on and near Pearse Street, one of Dublin’s longest streets, stretching from Ringsend to College Green. It's aims are to ‘green’ the street, improve the air quality, create a health and biodiversity corridor, reduce traffic to support walking and cycling, and create a more social space for people.   Members of Green Pearse Street include Allies and Morrison, Chartered Accountants Ireland, Cloud Picker Coffee, Dublin Chamber, Grant Thornton, Henry J Lyons, Hibernia, Honey Truffle, IPUT Real Estate, Jobcare, McCanns, O'Neills Victorian Pub and Townhouse, Pearse Street Management, PLM Group, St Andrews Resource Centre, The Lombard Pub & Townhouse Accommodation, The Podcast Studios, Travel Lodge, Trinity College Dublin, and William Fry.   Working in two parallel streams, the Green Pearse Street group includes action at individual organisation level, and on the collective level to create street-wide change for businesses, local communities, tourists, and other street users. In the longer-term, the group will campaign for the optimisation of this significant streetscape to make greater provision for Dubliners and visitors to the city to stop and enjoy the surroundings, helping urban areas like Pearse Street achieve a 30% biodiversity net gain by 2030.   Coordinated work by businesses along the street has already commenced. Measures include planters at ground and roof/balcony level to provide food for pollinating insects; the construction of living walls/green roofs; the installation of bird boxes/feeders to provide space for nesting and foraging; and a programme of local community engagement.  UCD Masters students in an urban design module have carried out two consecutive studies on the quality of street life and street edges. Their analysis points to challenges and changes that can make the street a more welcoming place to be.   Key facts In 2023, Green Pearse Street surveyed over 750 users of Pearse Street to generate insights into their perceptions of visiting, as well as living and working on Pearse Street. 96% of those approached on the street identified a need for change (of some variety, ranging from small to larger scale). Only 6% rated the current street layout as very good or excellent, with 24% rating it as poor. Popular recommendations on changes to the street include addition of more greenery (91%) more social spaces (benches and tables) (77%), and a safe cycle lane (64%).

This week’s miscellaneous updates – 3 June 2025

In this week’s detailed miscellaneous updates which you can read more about below, HMRC has published a new Spotlight which examines the use of a capital gains tax (CGT) avoidance scheme, and, the VAT Regulations 1995 have been amended to formalise a longstanding administrative concession regarding the due date for final VAT returns. In other news this week: HMRC is reminding parents of teens to go online to extend their child benefit claim, As US tax reform continues, KPMG has published a useful article explaining how the Bill could impact on UK corporates with US operations, and Fancy yourself as a budding Chancellor of the Exchequer? Ahead of the 2025 Spending Review, the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) has launched a new ‘Be the Chancellor' tool, which illustrates the key choices and fiscal challenges faced by the current Chancellor, Rachel Reeves. New CGT Spotlight In Spotlight 69, HMRC is warning that individuals who transfer a property business to a LLP which is subsequently put into MVL are involved in a CGT avoidance scheme. Such schemes aim to reduce/avoid a range of taxes as follows: CGT on the disposal of the properties to the LLP which enables a tax-free uplift to be achieved for the CGT base cost of the properties when subsequently disposed by the LLP, stamp duty land tax on the transfer of the properties to the LLP due to the rules for partnerships, and inheritance tax via potential access to business property relief. However, it is HMRC’s view that the scheme does not work as intended therefore HMRC is advising those involved to withdraw and settle their tax affairs by emailing the relevant HMRC team. Administrative concession for final VAT returns enshrined in law HMRC recently amended the VAT Regulations 1995 to formalise a longstanding administrative concession regarding the due date for final VAT returns. You can find the legislation and documents here: The Value Added Tax (Amendment) Regulations 2025 and Amendment to the Value Added Tax Regulations 2025. This amendment will take effect from 13 June 2025. The new legislation explicitly gives HMRC the power to provide businesses with additional time to submit their final return when deregistering from VAT. Currently, the regulations required most businesses to submit a final return within one month and seven days from their effective date of deregistration. However, it has been HMRC practice to provide businesses with one month and seven days from the date it makes the final return available for completion. This allows for any administrative delay during deregistration and gives consistency of treatment by ensuring all businesses have the same amount of time to submit their final return and pay their final VAT bill. HMRC will publish a ‘Direction’ under the amended regulations after it comes into force on 13 June. Although this will only apply in respect of businesses whose effective date of deregistration is on or after 14 June 2025, businesses with a deregistration date prior to this will effectively be treated the same under the current concession.

Reminder: we want to hear your views on behavioural penalty reform

As previously outlined in Chartered Accountants Tax News, HMRC is consulting on potential reforms to its behavioural penalty regime. The consultation is open until 18 June 2025 and seeks views on options to ‘simplify and strengthen’ the behavioural penalty regime for inaccuracies and failures to notify. The Institute will be responding to the consultation and is seeking your views on the proposals. Contact us by email before Monday 9 June to share your feedback. HMRC has been holding workshops on the proposed changes and has also provided a useful document summarising the proposals an overview of which is set out below. For failure to notify penalties, HMRC is proposing to remove the timing of disclosure as a factor in determining the relevant penalty ranges and to remove the narrower penalty ranges. There are also proposals to combine consideration of the type and quality of disclosure into one step, so that there is one set of headline rates. ‘Telling’ and ‘helping’ would be combined into one category to reduce overlap. For deliberate and repeated non-compliance, the potential changes are: increased penalty rates for all deliberate behaviour (e.g. same level as category 2 offshore penalties), a new higher tier of penalty rates for repeated deliberate non-compliance (e.g. at the same level as category 3 offshore penalties) and the potential for higher rates to be 'reset' for new occurrences in the future, the merger of ‘deliberate but not concealed’ and ‘deliberate and concealed’ into a single ‘deliberate’ category, and to codify ‘deliberate’ in penalty legislation, e.g. regarding intent, blind-eye knowledge, and, potentially, recklessness. There are also proposals for offshore penalties and penalty suspension. Alternative approaches are also considered as are a range of potential new non-financial penalties, many of which are very concerning.
