A consultation paper proposes changes to the tax avoidance disclosure regime to improve the identification of users of disclosed schemes

HMRC's Anti-Avoidance Group believes that there are some weaknesses in the scheme reference number system, including that:

  • the user of a scheme disclosed by a promoter does not receive an SRN; or
  • a user who has been issued with a number does not report its issue to HMRC.

The consultation paper, 'Disclosure of tax avoidance schemes: improving the scheme reference system', can be found at www.hmrc.gov.uk and comments should be sent by 12 February 2008 to Philippa.Staples@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk.
