CIOT is pleased to respond to the consultation on VAT treatment of land intended for the construction of new social housing, which considers a proposal that we put forward to the government in 2025.

The CIOT, ATT and LITRG have urged the government not to mandate payment of PAYE and VAT return liabilities by Direct Debit at this stage. Most taxpayers already pay the correct amount of tax on time using existing payment methods, including Direct Debit.

The Worshipful Company of Tax Advisers and its charities support tax education at every stage, from introducing schoolchildren to careers in tax to helping students gain tax qualifications.

CIOT held a roundtable in September to explore how the tax system can best support entrepreneurs and business growth.

The CIOT, LITRG and ATT have responded to a consultation on ‘Introducing a criminal offence for making reckless untrue statements or declarations in direct tax’.

HMRC’s tax receipts figures show income tax revenues continuing to climb, fresh evidence of the growing impact of frozen tax thresholds, says ATT.
