Fined

How much has the Lutheran Church in Great Britain been fined by HMRC?

Unfortunately the answer to that question is very difficult to obtain. The Bishop, Dean and Treasurer will only acknowledge the fines when asked directly, but will not disclose the total amount the Lutheran Church in Great Britain has paid in the last three years.

Several other Lutheran organisations have come under scrutiny because of the HMRC penalties. In meetings between the Bishop, the Dean and HMRC representatives, HMRC questioned the Lutheran Church in Great Britain about various possible employment and tax violations.

These fines have been hidden from members of the Lutheran Church in Great Britain.

One wonders why the information is kept secret. Is this another example of the consistent failure to disclose and manipulation by the Bishop and Dean?
