We have had a number of meetings including:

The summer Budget announced proposals to extend the ‘use and enjoyment’ rules to prevent VAT avoidance.

We have been asked to consider the application of the rules regarding ‘pre-registration VAT’ on assets held when a business is first registered.

From 6 April 2016, business expenses that are deductible by employees will become exempt if reimbursed by employers, subject to conditions.

The CIOT and ATT responded to HMRC’s ‘Call for evidence into the use of Deeds of Variation for tax purposes’.

Since August 2014 when HMRC wrote to employers that were disputing a PAYE charge it has become evident that many businesses are continuing to take this course of action.

Much, I suspect, to the bemusement of the organisers, the attendance at the CIOT residential conferences can be variable. Sometimes demand seems to be high; in other years there are vacancies.

In recent months we have received numerous reports from our members of continuing and excessive delays in the time it takes for HMRC’s option to tax national unit to respond to notifications.
