We bring you news of recent stamp duty land tax changes including the doubling of the threshold for residential properties. What appeared at first sight to be good news was rapidly dismissed in many quarters as too little too late.
Property, specifically inheritance tax planning for the family home, features again in our article ‘Giving and Taking Away’. Read it for a flavour of what is and isn’t possible.
The theme of good news and bad news continues with a collection of items for employers including the national minimum wage and electronic filing.
We also bring you news from Companies House as well as an update on the Inland Revenue’s campaign to close tax loopholes and stop tax schemes.
We hope you enjoy our collection of articles. If you have any comments (good or bad!) or any questions arising from anything in this newsletter, please give us a call.
