Making Tax Digital (MTD) - On Hold?

Here is the most recent update on the proposed Making Tax Digital 
(MTD). 
Due to Parliament being dissolved in preparation for the General Election, some of the clauses of the Finance Bill were put aside. One of these clauses was relating to MTD , so for now, it's implementation and future is uncertain.

It is expected that MTD is likely to be re-introduced once the new Government is formed but it's timescales and roll-out are unclear at this time. There is also no guarantee that a different Government will have the same objectives.

In the meantime we will be considering the requirements as we believe it is inevitable that it will become enforced at some point in the future.

We will keep you updated so.. ." Watch this Space!"

Worst Excuses Ever!

Investigators from  HMRC  have revealed some of the worst excuses given to them by employers caught out for underpaying their employees.
Here are just 6 of them.



I thought it was ok to pay foreign workers below the National Minimum Wage as they aren't British and therefore don't have the right to be paid it.

She doesn't deserve the National Minimum Wage because she only makes the teas and sweeps the floors.


I've got an agreement with my workers that I won't pay them the National Minimum Wage; they understand and they even signed a contract to this effect.


My workers like to think of themselves as being self-employed and the National Minimum Wage doesn't apply to people who work for themselves.


My workers are often just on standby when there are no customers in the shop; I only pay them for when they're actually serving someone.

 My employee is still learning so they aren't entitled to the National Minimum Wage.


By law, all workers must be paid at least £7.50 an hour if they are aged 25 years and over, or the National Minimum Wage rate relevant to their age if they are younger.
