The Finance Bill 2020 is being pushed through Parliament with the aim of becoming law in July.
It aims to give HMRC the power and penalties to pursue those who have breached the furlough scheme rules. It also gives HMRC the power to hold directors jointly and severally liable when businesses become insolvent. In addition, there is a whistle blower scheme for those who wish to report breaches.
