New SA podcast for Agents

HM REVENUE AND CUSTOMS News Release (Ref:NAT 17/08) issued by The Government News Network on 10 April 2008

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has launched the latest in its series of award-winning podcasts for tax agents and intermediaries.

In the latest edition, Stephen Banyard, Director of HMRC's Business Customer Unit, discusses the changes to self assessment filing deadlines, what this means for agents and clients, how to avoid penalties, and the support available for online filers. It can be downloaded for free from the HMRC podcast page at http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/podcasts

There is also a free subscription service available, so future podcasts are automatically downloaded to your computer when you're online. Full instructions are available on the HMRC podcast page.

Notes for editors

1. In April 2007, HMRC became one of the first Government departments to launch a podcast service, designed to make information available on a wide range of subjects.

2. The success of previous HMRC podcasts was recognised in an award given to Acting Chairman Dave Hartnett by the Institute of Financial Accountants (IFA) in October 2007. The award, in the web/internet category, was voted for by the organisation's membership made up of accountants and tax practitioners.
