It's normally the administrator or liquidator who starts that process.Quote:

My understanding from that is that their VAT payment will be due by each month end (31 May in this case). HMRC give businesses who are not in the POA scheme seven days grace to pay VAT* - they seem to have given Hearts that advantage in this case as well. I suspect Hearts will have phoned up HMRC last Friday (31st) to tell them they wouldn't get the money (hence the "we are in dialogue with HMRC" spin yesterday) and HMRC have told them "okay, but if we don't get the money next week we will take court action" (ie if they don't pay before the weekend HMRC will file papers on Monday).Quote:
The due dates for payments on account are the last working day of the second and third months of every VAT quarterly period, regardless of your period end dates - we will send you a payment schedule listing all your payment dates. If you are in POA, and submit quarterly returns, you will not get the seven extra days to pay and submit your VAT return, as described on the How to Pay VAT page on our website.
*This is a legacy of shifting from submitting VAT returns on paper and paying by cheque to submitting returns online and paying electronically.
Thanks.Quote:

Come on now Bob, inaction is exactly what I would expect for these incompetents.Quote:

My source tells me the SPL is indeed keeping an eye on this situation closely. As with the points deduction though they can't act until the SPL rules have been broken beyond doubt, which hasn't happened yet unfortunately. Any punishment the SPL dish out under the current circumstances would be turned over almost immediately in court.
Is this latest tax default not a breach of their rules? :dunno: I thought P.A.Y.E and VAT had tae be paid on time :dunno:Quote:

I think that SPL clubs now have to report tax breaches within 3 days, and that period is now up. The yaks can hardly not report it, as it's already in the public domain. If it all works to plan there will be a transfer embargo within a few days.Quote:

Which sums up the SPL in a sentence. A club gets in **** for not paying their PAYE so the SPL introduces rules to ensure clubs pay their PAYE rather than rules to ensure that they pay all their tax.Quote:

I think the SPL will think that they must be seen to be doing every thing above board but when it throws the plans of the other clubs into disarray it does nobody any favours. Surely they must be able to ask hertz to put a viable plan in front of them or tell them to get tae ****.Quote:

To be fair, that sums up any legal system.Quote:

The bodyguard group is said to belong to another contentious businessman of Chechen origin, Ruslan Baisarov, who used to have a certain tie with Lithuania in the past, as he was married (now divorced) to the singer Kristina Orbakaitė

How about a rule that states any club failing to pay bills, debts or obligations are subject to points deductions and signing embaro?Quote:

The SPL will never rule the league with an iron fist and anyone expecting them to do so will be disappointed.Quote:

In respect to Danny Wilson, I suspect that if Hearts submit the registration documents, the authorities will tell them to hold the bus until they can prove that they can pay the next month's wages and PAYE.
