At the March 2015 Budget the government announced that it would make it a crime for corporations to fail to put in place reasonable procedures to prevent associated persons from criminally facilitating tax evasion.
HMRC is proactively engaged in tackling illicit finances as part of our broader compliance activity on serious and organised revenue crime. We are clamping down on serious and complex tax fraud and seeking to make use of powers under the Criminal Finances Act.
Following a number of requests made under the Freedom of Information Act on this subject, the department is publishing statistics on our related compliance activities.
