HMRC published CC/FS92 on 25 September, an unusual note inside an anti-avoidance drive. In the new guidance, HMRC says the note covers “your rights” where it is considering a POP penalty. It also frames the matter as “The Human Rights Act and penalties” in POP legislation. That is a surprise because the department is pairing enforcement language with explicit rights language on the same day. Tax advisers and disputes teams will read that as a sign of live enforcement risk.
CC/FS92 is a compliance-check factsheet, not a policy speech. It explains rights where HMRC is considering penalties for breaches of the prohibition on promoting certain tax avoidance arrangements. This is not a new filing deadline or a fresh rate card for fines. The important shift is procedural. HMRC is signalling that promoter cases may turn on how the investigation is handled, not only on the end penalty. That matters because rights notices often shape document requests, representations, and appeal strategy from the outset. The document is aimed at people HMRC thinks may have breached POP rules, not at ordinary taxpayers.
In RecoupIQ, a fresh HMRC compliance factsheet is a regulatory-process signal. It suggests the department expects enough live POP work to standardise how rights are explained. That does not tell us who will pay more tax, or who will win a dispute. It does tell us when to raise attention on connected signals, especially late filings, auditor caveats, and weakening payment behaviour. Our director-influence analysis becomes more useful when regulatory process risk sits alongside concentrated decision-making. We treat that combination as a cue for closer counterparty review, not as proof of financial distress.

For creditors, the point is not to assume every tax-linked counterparty is in trouble. The point is to test exposure earlier. Could a customer, supplier, or advisory chain face longer disputes, higher professional fees, or management distraction under HMRC scrutiny? If yes, review payment terms, refresh diligence questions, and watch Companies House filings more closely before balances build. For SME owners, this is a reminder that regulatory scrutiny can alter cash timing without creating immediate insolvency. That matters most where receivables depend on a small group of decision-makers or specialist advisers. Exposure reviews should cover legal friction, not only missed payments.
