Abstract
This paper reviews previous research relating to tax evasion and outlines a framework of responses potentially available to Governments and/or Revenue Authorities to curb tax evasion. Recent New Zealand anti-evasion reforms arc described within this framework. It is evident that compliance has been a key design objective in their introduction. Several implications of these Governmental reforms for the accounting profession are suggested.
