Loan charge review calls for evidence
The independent review into the loan charge has issued a call for evidence with examples of promotional material and marketing leaflets a priority for the review team.
The review was announced by the Treasury in January and is being led by Ray McCann, a former President of the Chartered Institute of Taxation.
It is now asking people affected by loan charge to get in touch with evidence of the schemes they were signed up to by noon on 30 May.
McCann said:
‘What the review needs most is documentary evidence, such as copies of marketing material, letters, emails and so on sent to you by the promoters of these schemes.
‘This will supplement the information the review already holds and add to the great deal of information, albeit mostly anonymous, that is in the public domain.
‘It will greatly help the review team understand why so many have become involved in these schemes, the responsibility the promoters have for bringing misery to so many and the difficulties you have had in bringing your involvement to a close.
‘The review team has suggested several questions in each section, these can be answered as they have been asked, where they are relevant, or used as a guide to the kind of information the review team needs. The review team also plan to speak to some of those involved as part of the review.’
