Details

Not paying the right amount of tax places an unfair burden on the honest majority of taxpayers. That is why the Government is investing £917 million between 2010 and 2015 to increase tax compliance. This includes illegal tax evasion and those who seek to avoid tax by operating within the letter - but not the spirit - of the law. This briefing explains our approach to tackling both evasion and avoidance, so we can collect the right amount of tax.
