flag HMRC restarts direct tax withdrawals for debts over £1,000, with safeguards to protect vulnerable taxpayers and ensure fairness.

flag HMRC has restarted its program allowing direct withdrawal of unpaid taxes from bank accounts, resuming a policy paused during the pandemic. flag The initiative targets individuals and businesses with debts of £1,000 or more who can afford to pay but have not, after repeated notices and appeal periods. flag Under strict safeguards, at least £5,000 must remain in accounts to cover essential expenses, and vulnerable individuals are protected. flag Debtors retain the right to appeal, and support like payment plans remains available. flag The move aims to improve tax collection and reduce national debt while ensuring fairness, with HMRC noting most taxpayers pay on time.
