HMRC has, as promised, provided updated guidance in respect of the Requirement to Correct provisions.
Aside from changes to many of the examples, there are three main areas of the guidance that has been updated.
1. Penalties
The guidance now provides detail on how the standard Failure to Correct penalty of 200% of the tax liability, may be reduced. The minimum penalty remains at 100% of the tax liability.
