In certain instances, they also administer payments to certain relevant individuals (such as statutory sick pay, statutory maternity pay) as well as targeted financial support (welfare) to families and individuals (through payment of tax credits or transfer payments).[1][2]
The chief executive of the revenue agency is usually styled as Commissioner, Minister, Secretary or Director.
