Welcome to our summer newsletter. This edition brings together a range of issues including important proposals for parents contained in the Work and Families Bill, confirmation of the new National Minimum Wage rates, a guide to checking your tax code as well as some good advice to help you beat the tax deadline rush that inevitably comes in January each year. By 2008 we may be referring to the September or November rush! Budget 2006 included the unexpected announcement that self assessment tax deadlines may be moved forward from 31 January. More on this surprise announcement inside.
Our summer newsletter allows us to look back at the Budget generally and reflect on some of the important changes announced. With many of the Chancellor’s proposals now announced earlier in his Pre-Budget statement, the Budget is not quite the event it used to be. Nevertheless, this year’s Budget did include some surprise announcements. Read the summary inside for our view on of some of the major changes and proposals.
As always we hope you enjoy this quarter’s news and would be delighted to hear from you if you have any questions or comments.
