Equality Impact Assessments for Regional Reviews

HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) announced in November 2006 a nationwide Programme of Regional Reviews looking at the Department’s office accommodation with a view to bringing it into line with future business needs and achieving savings on behalf of the taxpayer. All reviews, are now complete. HMRC is now moving into the implementation stage of the Regional Review process which will take forward the changes announced. A description of how the Programme works is available at HM Revenue & Customs Change Programme.

The effects of proposals on HMRC customers, staff and other stakeholders are examined in Impact Assessments and, where appropriate, Equality Impact Assessments.
