Britain has dismissed reports that it is contemplating outsourcing sensitive tax processing work to India, saying it does not have any such plans right now.
These services are not permitted to be delivered from outside, said a spokesman for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
"We currently have no plans to change this. HMRC is constantly looking at how it can provide better value for money to the taxpayer. Project Quantum is specifically focussed on value for money in the IT field," he said.
The spokesman was refuting a report in 'Computer Weekly' that Britain's Finance Ministry is considering proposals to contract out sensitive tax processing work to India.
The report had claimed that "HMRC ministry and its main IT contractors Capgemini Fujitsu are looking at the potential of outsourcing some tax processing to India."
