Of these 3,219 were randomly checked. That's less than 0.04%. The rest, over 99.96%, were taken on trust. I would suggest that self-assessment tax returns compare well the HE whilst PAYE is more comparable with schools, but either way, your argument fails since even employed people can have other work fail to pay tax on those wages. How many random checks are carried out to ensure this isn't happening?<br /><br />The comparison between tax returns and HE inspections sounds like a good argument for significant reductions in the number of home visits currently carried out by LA employees.

Paying tax by PAYE is done automatically, with the individual being thought too stupid or dishonest to be trusted with the process. We could rid ourselves of a huge number of civil servants, simply by allowing people to decide for themselves if they were paying the right amont of tax and sending it off to the Inland Revenue. All this constant checking smacks to me very much of a presumption of guilt.<br /><br /> Simon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881402584568285627.post-55898963034329967972012-06-10T07:01:38.742-07:002012-06-10T07:01:38.742-07:00The Inland Revenue operate a similar system to the...The Inland Revenue operate a similar system to the New Zealand education system. A few random visits (we've been in business for 20 without a visit) and a few written details (basically totals for income and expenditure for small businesses). Most home educators do not object to providing written information in response to informal enquiries, the equivalent to tax returns. It would be interesting to hear their view of the New Zealand practice of a few random visits (8) per year. Far fewer visits than LAs currently undertake but probably more comparable to the UK tax system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
