HMRC Chairman Quits

The taxman’s policy chief Dave Hartnett has been appointed acting chairman of the department.

The appointment of Hartnett follows the sensational departure of Paul Gray over the loss of the personal data of 25 million people.

Chairman Paul Gray tendered his resignation on Tuesday immediately as the news was announced, bringing to an end his brief run at the department and disappointing advisers who had warmed to his style of management.

The real responsibility for this fiasco lies with Brown who set up the unmanageable HMRC in the first place.
