This week on The Tax Factor, Heather Self and Roger Holman ask whether Angela Rayner should stop auditioning for Chancellor after her tax policy ideas were leaked and heavily critiqued. Meanwhile, HMRC is getting heat from all directions: the National Audit Office questions its handling of wealthy taxpayers, and the Public Accounts Committee says the tax system is spiralling into complexity, public trust is fading, and confidence in HMRC’s IT overhaul is shaky at best. Scottish Power had a fine reduced to £1 but paid £28 million in compensation. The big question: can that be claimed as tax deductible? HMRC and Scottish Power don’t see eye to eye.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The new National Children's Hospital in Dublin will not receive its first patients until at least June of next year, the Dáil Public Accounts Committee has heard. John Brady, Sinn Féin TD and Chairperson of the PAC, and Paul McCauliffe, Fianna Fáil TD and member of the PAC, react to the latest delay.

Jack Horgan-Jones and Cormac McQuinn join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics: · The Public Accounts Committee returned on Thursday and already it was making headlines with revelations about former Children's Health Ireland boss Eilish Hardiman's salary. PAC is apt at generating headlines with leaked opening statements and TDs eager to make their name a staple for the Dáil committee. · A move towards fiscal caution as Fine Gael's Neale Richmond signals planned tax cuts may have to be abandoned unless a trade deal with the US can be agreed. Will one-off cost-of-living payments be absent from Budget 2026?· The plan to introduce mandatory alcohol warning labels could be reconsidered amid the potential impact of US tariffs on the sector. And a ban on the sale of energy drinks to under 18s won't be a reality until the “necessary evidence-gathering, research and examination of appropriate policy options and stakeholder engagement” is achieved.· Plus, Minister for Housing James Browne backed out of meeting with Dublin Lord Mayor Emma Blain to discuss issues relating to the tenant-in-situ scheme.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· What can Dublin learn from San Francisco's regeneration? Collapsing cottages, dereliction and land hoarding, and should people in Northern Ireland get to vote in Irish presidential elections? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hello, and welcome to episode 144 of the Financial Crime Weekly Podcast, I'm Chris Kirkbride. A reasonably busy week this week. On sanctions, changes to various regimes from the UK, including a shift in approach on Syria. On money laundering, MONEYVAL issues a report on Guernsey, and the FATF trails its upcoming plenary. The bribery and corruption news comes from the US with a range of stories, while on fraud, arrests in Europe relating to a multi-million-euro investment fraud. On market abuse, Switzerland has charged an individual with insider dealing, and the FCA in the UK has updated on its approach to cryptoasset, debt solutions, and claims management company promotions. The other financial crime news provides that the EU has given funding to combat wildlife crime, and the Public Accounts Committee in the UK has warned that the estimate of tax evasion in the UK may be higher than official figures. And finally in the round-up of this week's financial crime news the cybercrime news comes with sanctions against a Russian cybercrime network, and Europol announces arrests in relation to a ransomware group.A transcript of this podcast is available at www.crimes.financial, with links to the stories.

A senior MP has backed calls to start automatically paying out hundreds of millions of pounds to young adults if they haven't claimed government-backed child trusts funds by the time they turn 21. Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, who is also chair of parliament's Public Accounts Committee, says the move would help nearly half a million people born between 2002 and 2011 access one billion pounds of their own money that they don't even know about. The government says the idea would be complex and costly.There has been a lot of talk on the news about gilts and the bond market.

Heavy rainfall affected parts of West Bengal and Odisha as the states prepared for the impending landfall of Cyclone Dana later tonight.

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack For 10 years the Public Accounts Committee, and various Oireachtas Committees, have failed to serve their purpose: holding the powerful to account. A cautious legal approach, backed up by OPLA, has led to a situation where whistleblowers were told that the Committee could “not adjudicate” on the wrongs they exposed. We say that advice is incorrect. Joining us on the shack are two such whistleblowers, Matt McGrangahan annd Shane Corr and they have revelations (including a one billion euro clusterfuck in the Dept of Health) and questions that they feel need investigating and real answers.

Deputy Brian Stanley, Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee, discusses the latest revelations about the National Children's Hospital project.

Reports that Labour are set to bar Diane Abbott from standing in the general election have sparked outrage, with the veteran MP accusing Keir Starmer of purging the party's left wing and alienating voters.  But is the Labour leader and his inner circle willing to lose left-wing voters, if it means they can concentrate on winning over disaffected Conservatives and bringing back Labour supporters who were put off by Jeremy Corbyn? This week, Rishi Sunak has made a slew of policy announcements - national service for teenagers, cutting so-called “Mickey Mouse” university courses, and a tax giveaway for pensioners - this has left many wondering if the Tories have totally given up on young voters. Meanwhile, Liberal Democrats leader Ed Davey was pictured falling - or jumping - off a paddleboard in Lake Windermere, but can the party make a splash across the country or is it just about a few target seats? In this episode of The Political Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy talks about all this with the Liberal Democrats' deputy leader Daisy Cooper, former Conservative Universities minister, Lord Johnson, and Meg Hillier, who was Labour Chair of Parliament's Public Accounts Committee and has been the MP in Diane Abbott's neighbouring constituency for 20 years. Produced by Calum Fraser, Silvia Maresca, Shaheen Sattar, Rob Thompson and Nick Jackson.

The completion date for the new National Children's Hospital will be further delayed, the Public Accounts Committee will hear today. Ahead of the meeting Shane spoke to Brian Stanley, Sinn Fein TD and Chair of Public Accounts Committee.
