Summer Holiday? - UPDATED


My thanks to a loyal reader who has pointed out that the last entry on HMRC's "What's New" page on the HMRC website is dated 13 July (well over a month ago).

Does this mean that nothing new at all has occurred during this period, or that the department that updates this page is on a protracted holiday?

Factoid: Our "illustrious" elected representatives are currently on a 47 day break.

UPDATE

Folks, proof positive that HMRC read this site. Since posting this morning that there were no updates since 13 July (and yes, I did check that myself), HMRC have now updated their "What's New" page!

Hoozah!

Tax does have to be taxing.

  1. Have you actually tried clicking on the link?
    I did and there are a page and a half of additions since 13th July!
    What is going on, 5th columnists at work again or just bad research?

  3. Begs the question - why the delay then?
    Someone forgot to press the send button I suppose.

  4. Of course HMRC read this site, although among the clerical staff at least it's virtually a hanging offence even to mention its existence.

  5. This could get interesting, have we stumbled upon a subliminal method of getting the monolith to move?
    Try this HMRC:-
    Pay managers less and staff more.
    Get rid of whiteboards.
    Don't buy a Toyota unlessyou like makers recalls.
    You are supposed to protect the revenue not just collect what the big boys feel like paying you out of embarassment.

  6. Funny, because I looked at What's New on the 20th and it was up to date. So no holidays evident. Sadly.

  7. Rock and roll, here we go. Line up the conspiracy theories, call out the guard.
    People will be accusing the PCS leadership of collusion with management next.
    LOL
