- Extensive updates to reflect organisational change within HMRC and the role of Wealthy and Mid-Size Business Compliance (WMBC);
- New examples of how groups and aggregation should be applied;
- Clarification of HMRC's view on the inability to delegate the SAO role and their view of time limits for short or long accounting periods;
- Clarification about when requests for extensions to time limits for SAO notification or certificates will be considered;
- Clarification of the SAO role where a company is struck off; and
- Various updates throughout the guidance to reflect the changes to how HMRC are organising their compliance work.
