This legislation now includes Scotland and Northern Ireland to ensure the consistent application of interest rates payable on all tax related debts to which HMRC is a party. It also sets the rates of interest to an appropriate level given prevailing interest rates, and extends the definition of “taxation matter” to include National Insurance contributions.
