HMRC Charter consultation
Executive summary
AAT believes that the HMRC Charter is both a helpful and necessary addition to its customer service provision and that the proposed revision is a positive development. However, it should be enforceable and some form of penalty/reward for HMRC failures or successes in meeting Charter obligations should be considered to ensure greater accountability and increased effectiveness.
