Are they on speed on that office now or have their contracts changed to a "by-article" basis?

130 ebriefs so far this year already compared to 127 for the whole of 2017
 
Getting increasing impossible now to keep up with the pace of change. Many of them are irrelevant garbage but sorting out the important ones is often a tall order.
 
It's annoying that most of the time the ebrief just links to an updated manual but when you click on the manual there is no assistance to indicate which parts have been updated so you have to read the whole thing for very little new info

It would help if the amended and/or brand new sections could be highlighted in yellow or something, even for 30 days
 
Since the Apple case the Revenue are stating that everything they issue is only valid for five years. Hence anything that was issued in previous Tax Briefings, eBriefs and Tax & Duty Manuals (previously called inspectors manuals or s 16 FOI information) from more than five years prior is now invalid. Accordingly they are reissuing material at a rate of knots - 14 eBriefs last week according to the Institute of Tax. In some instances whole chunks of the manuals are being removed with long standing practices being dropped. Removing the material from their website is deliberate and in the Revenue's favour. For transparency the old ones should be left there so you can establish what was the practice at a certain point in time in the event of a Revenue audit (for example).

HMRC keep their old material on a separate site which is easily accessible.
