HMRC have issued the following message:
“We told you a little while ago that HMRC is developing a new feature within the agent services account called Manage Access Groups which will allow agents to control who in their agency can access client records, with the option to opt in or out of using it.
We have been testing this with agents that have up to 1,000 clients and we are pleased to tell you we are ready to begin testing with larger agents that have up to 100,000 clients.
If you are interested in taking part in testing or would like to find out more about what it involves or how Manage Access Groups could benefit your business, email mtdgpvolunteers@hmrc.gov.uk.“
