Power grab for taxman criticised as ‘sinister’
‘Millions of people face seeing money disappear from their bank accounts without being told after a “sinister” power grab by the taxman, experts have warned.
HM Revenue and Customs wants to delay telling employees about changes in their tax-codes for up to a month, which could see people paying more tax than they owe.
Tax experts say that the delay would mean people only find out when it is too late to correct the mistake and the money has already been deducted from their monthly salary.’
