That this House notes with concern the complexity of completing the self-assessment forms of HM Revenue and Customs; further notes that the time and sometimes fees involved in completing such forms is prohibitive to their accurate compilation, that the forms often request information beyond that of income and expenditure, and furthermore that the complicated format highlights the over-complicated taxation system in the UK; and therefore calls on HM Treasury to simplify and streamline the UK taxation system and in doing so simplify the forms for self-assessment.

That this House notes the proposal to shorten the deadline for submission of self-assessment tax returns from 31st January 2009 to 30th November 2008 for online returns and to 30th September 2008 for manual returns; further notes that this proposal was made without proper consultation with tax advisers and their clients; believes the current proposals will place an undue burden on taxpayers by requiring them to provide information to their advisers in a shorter timescale; further believes the current proposals will lead to an increase in the number of provisional and incorrect returns, which will require manual amendment by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) as their online systems are unable to accept amendments; further believes that, far from spreading the workload for accountants and HMRC, the proposal will create a larger peak at a different time; therefore urges the Government to withdraw the proposal; and recommends that the Government consult with the tax profession before bringing forward any revised proposal.
