Reports are that this will be dropped from the finance bill.

 

So, until next time....

I saw this too, although HMRC are far too heavily 'invested' to drop it altogether...... but we can hope!!! Funny how someone on Aweb has only just spotted the month movement in vat returns despite me banging on about it a while back, another sneak things through the back door....so don't hold your breathe that much will change!

Cynic, moi?!!

I agree.

Whilst your focus is on one point, they alter three.


What do we think? Is this just a way the Government and the 'opposition' have decided to try to neutralise the ground until after the election?

Is it normal to do this, I don't remember seeing anything like this before, or is it a case of an election being inbetween a budget and Royal Assent of the Act?

Trouble is there is no competition in this election, a one horse race against a donkey, so it seems.

The cynic in me is sensing the revival of the NI increase after the next Conservative Government, with a new manifesto, gains power.

I remembering reading, or dreaming, about the Chancellor 'Mr. Spreadsheet' (That could be funny if I didn't use spreadsheets) had plans on creating a limited liability Sole Trader scheme - any of you guys hear anything of the sort too?

Thanks

Hi Johnny

All bills have to go through parliament before 26th(?) April otherwise they have to be dropped, hence the slimming down of the 2017 finance bill.  To kickstart MTD they will have to start the bill again.
