Postpone and subsequently cancel the introduction of Making Tax Digital by HMRC

Petition Details

HMRC have proposed making the smallest businesses file quarterly accounting data by April 2018, termed Making Tax Digital. We ask Parliament to withdraw the concept and subsequent mandatory introduction of Making Tax Digital. I set out below the compelling reasons:

Additional Information

Reasons: April 2018 is not feasible; additional costs re compulsory purchase of untested software; professionals acting as legitimate tax agents will be excluded; compulsory storing data in a supposedly secure cloud; there is no genuine rationale or reasoning behind Making Tax Digital other than to exclude agents and impose software costs on businesses. HMRC should concentrate on sorting out the problems with errors and data in its own systems before moving onto major projects such as this.
