HMRC raises £16 for every £1 it spends on staff carrying out investigations into the #tax affairs of individuals and small businesses. Figures show HMRC collected £4.9bn in extra tax from investigations into individuals and small businesses in 2018-19, but only had to spend £309m on staff to achieve that. This extra tax included £1.2bn from investigations into underpaid income tax. Sign up to our #TaxInvestigation scheme to be protected from #HMRC enquiries
