Disguised Remuneration project and Mr Phil Gilbert
Dear HM Revenue and Customs,
1. Can you confirm the existence of a DR Project, as pictured in the publicised social media photograph with Phil Gilbert and the banner featuring the image of a tiger?
2. Is the wording on this banner ‘Make it Real, DR Project, HMRC Roar’?
3. Why was a tiger chosen to be the symbol of this project?
4. What do HMRC mean by the phrase ‘Make it Real’? Please explain why this phrase was adopted?
5. Why have HMRC been seeking to remove the photograph with Mr Gilbert and the tiger banner from Twitter?
6. Can you explain the role of behavioural psychology/behavioural insights in this project?
7. Please supply all internal emails from January 2016 and April 2019 between (to and from, including cc) Phil Gilbert and all HMRC staff from G7 upwards, including Directors and Deputy Directors of HMRC that mention the DR Project.
Yours faithfully,
Sabina Mangosi
