Hi Peter,
Nice to see you on the site. As Kevin Ringer points out here:
https://www.accountingweb.co.uk/community/blogs/kevinringer/hmrc-fail-mt...
HMRC has failed to publish its exemption criteria "due to unforeseen circumstances".
More when we know more!

I think many clients a lot younger than her will not see why they should change their way of working to suit HMRC.
Exactly. Having a blanket age exemption seems discriminatory. I think I will tell HMRC that I "identify" as 100 years old and that should get me out of my obligations.
April 2020 is just the earliest they could possibly bring in MTD for income tax, and that's with an extremely loose definition of "could possibly".
