    New tax crackdown for small businesses and self employed people,


    HIM Revenue & Customs is stepping up its attempts to bring in more unpaid tax. Part of the campaign will focus on criminal gangs that evade VAT and duties.

    The aim is to increase the number of prosecutions.

    Two hundred HMRC staff are being trained in self-defence techniques to deal with potentially violent fraudsters when premises are raided.

    This is being funded by £900m earmarked from departmental cost savings.

    According to HMRC, 90% of taxpayers pay what they owe in full. The campaign will crack down on the 10% who evade tax bills.

    These include some small businesses and self-employed professionals. The chancellor has set HMRC a target of raising an extra £7bn by the 2014/15 tax year.
