One of our staff members, Lynette Flavell, who is responsible for our payroll bureau, has recently joined the Small Employers' Consultation Panel.
This is a committee made up of representatives from H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC) and small businesses and is designed as a forum to discuss and, hopefully, influence the way HMRC deals with taxpayers, employers and agents.
Lynette has already raised a number of problem areas we are finding within PAYE and CIS administration, and she is keen to follow this up with further issues.
If you are experiencing any problems with your dealings with HMRC, then please let us know, via Lynette, so that she can raise them at the next quarterly meeting.
The representatives of HMRC have, so far, been unaware that some of the problems actually existed and they are keen to know about them to resolve them.
We occasionally write about recent events and legislation, expressing our opinion and keeping you informed. New articles will be published here, so check back regularly.
