HMRC is seeking stakeholders’ help in its ‘drive for greater transparency’. On the day it published, along with other government departments, details of its spending over £25,000 in the period May to September 2010, it requested comments on the information strategy set out in its Business Plan for 2011-15.
Comments are invited by 31 January on whether HMRC has selected the right basket of ‘input and impact’ indicators and measures, and explained their meaning clearly; and whether it could provide additional data, or data broken down in a different way.
Journalists at The Guardian, who have had access to the spending data for more than a week, have provided an analysis on the paper’s Data Blog.
That analysis indicates that in the five month period, HMRC reported expenditure of £578 million, including £308 million relating to information management solutions and £171 million on estates and support services.
