Treasury will reward whistleblowers for exposing tax avoidance or fraud

The Treasury announced a whistleblower scheme to encourage reporting of tax avoidance or fraud, similar to the U.S. Model.
Whistleblowers will receive up to 25 percent of the additional tax collected due to their reports.
The scheme aims to close the £6.5 billion tax gap each year.
James Murray stated that tax fraud harms those who follow the rules, and the new approach incentivizes reporting.
