Dear HM Revenue and Customs,

I request the following information

(i) In the event of misconduct in public office allegations toward the Director of HMRC Counter Avoidance, please detail any internal investigation process that would used by HMRC.

(ii) Please detail the process used when replacing the Director of HMRC Counter Avoidance if they were suspended for any reason.

(iii) Are there any succession plans in place for the Director of HMRC Counter Avoidance if they were to leave their post unexpectedly? e.g. poor health, suicide or found guilty of misconduct in public office

(iv) In the event a HMRC Director was found guilty of misconduct in public office (or any other misconduct) would they still be entitled to their accumulated HMRC pension?

(v) Please give me information on any processes that would be used to replace the Director of HMRC Counter Avoidance.

n.b. I believe the current Director of Counter Avoidance is an interim role but my questions apply to both interim or permanent Directors of Counter Avoidance and relate to anyone in the Director of Counter Avoidance role not the current Director.

Yours faithfully,

Chris Sawyer
