Published by Michael Graves on Tue, 05/09/2023 - 10:32amHMRC should increase the rewards it pays out to whistleblowers in line with the US system, according to law firm RPC.
The tax authority paid out over £509,000 to individuals providing evidence about tax fraud over the past year, RPC's research found.
That figure is up from £495,000 in 2021/22 and a 75% increase from the £290,000 paid five years ago, the law firm added.
