Key Documents

The government has released a consultation paper to enhance the Tax Practitioners Board’s (TPB) sanctions regime as part of the government’s response to the PwC matter, announced on 6 August 2023.

This paper relates to the priority area identified for action in the government’s PwC response: Increase the powers of our regulators.

The consultation paper will:

  • enable the TPB to have the ability to impose sanctions that escalate in severity in response to more serious contraventions of the law.
  • have a greater deterrence effect on misconduct and will allow the TPB to respond to misconduct in a timely manner.

The government is seeking stakeholder feedback on proposed reforms that will provide the TPB with a stronger and more agile sanctions regime.
