HMRC has announced a suspension of the Business Records Check (BRC) program until the new tax year, when they will implement a new approach.
Any new BRC appointments will be postponed until the revamped approach is launched early in the 2012/13 financial year. However, HMRC will continue to undertake visits already booked (including follow up visits) to those already identified as having seriously inadequate statutory records.
