Eight partners have been shown the door by major consultancy firm PwC following a high-profile confidentiality breach involving secret federal tax information.

Former chief executive Tom Seymour, who has already stepped down ahead of his retirement date, was on the list of eight names either directly involved with the information breach or in the firm’s handling of the incident.
