Most recently, LexisNexis has been contracted to supply HMRC with the full Tax LexisLibrary for a further three years. According to the publisher, LexisLibrary is the most comprehensive and authoritative source of UK Tax and Legal Cases, Commentary, Primary Legislation and Secondary Legislation, including exclusive sources such as the Tolley’s Tax Books, Simon’s Taxes, De Voil’s, and the Tolley’s Yellow & Orange Tax Handbooks.
Another new development sees LexisNexis supplying HMRC with its News & Business information distribution tool, Publisher. Publisher draws its content from the Nexis database to deliver customised news and business content from over 12,000 authoritative sources from around the world to desktops via email or an intranet page. LexisNexis has been contracted to supply Publisher for three years, and to extend provision of the Nexis service for a further three years.
Josh Bottomley (pictured), Managing Director LexisNexis, commented: “We are delighted to continue working with HMRC. In addition to the well-established LexisNexis library of tax & accounting resources, we continue to invest in developing innovative services to help our customers in these challenging times.”
These two new agreements are in addition to the other products and services LexisNexis already supplies to HMRC, which include:
* VAT Cases, Tolley’s VAT and many Yellow Tax handbooks
* Access to Legal menus content through the LION agreement
* Electronic access via their Intranet to the Tolley’s Yellow and Orange
* Tax Handbook
* Attendance for 500 individuals at this year’s Tolley’s Tax Seminars
* A new agreement for HMRC wide access to the GAAP online menu
