Consultations & legislation
12 July 2010
The Government is taking steps to ensure that changes to the tax system receive adequate scrutiny. Accordingly, the Government is publishing draft legislation on technical tax measures, inherited from the previous government that are to be legislated in a Finance Bill to be introduced to Parliament in the autumn. The Government would welcome comments to ensure the legislation works as intended. We are not seeking comments on the policy.
If you wish to comment on any of the draft legislation, please use the contact details provided at the end of each explanatory note.
If you have any comments on the consultation process for these measures, please email FBTeam@hmtreasury.gsi.gov.uk
This consultation will close on 3 September 2010.
Each piece of draft legislation below is accompanied in the same document by a draft explanatory note. These are intended to assist the reader in understanding the legislation, but are not meant to be a comprehensive description of the legislation. So, where a section or part of a section does not seem to require any explanation or comment, none is given.
