With the 31 January Self-Assessment tax return filing deadline fast approaching, HM Revenue and Customs issued a press release last week noting that 5.4 million taxpayers are yet to complete their return.
Apparently more than 24,800 people filed their return on New Year’s Day, while a further 38,000 had filed theirs on 31 December. 310 filed their returns between 11pm and midnight.
Missing the 31 January deadline can lead to an initial late filing penalty of £100.

The government has published a response to its consultation 'Land Remediation Relief' (LRR).
