Treasury sets aside CGT and IHT change agendas

Tax and Administration Maintenance (TAM) Day is a new phenomenon brought in by the Treasury to try and move away from the traditional all-in-one Budget. Following the first ‘Tax Day’ in March, the end of November saw another round of announcements.

HICBC discovery assessments deemed invalid

A discovery assessment can be made by HMRC where income, which should have been assessed, has not been assessed for tax purposes. A recent decision in an Upper Tribunal case, however, found that neither child benefit, nor the related charge, is defined as income, thereby restricting HMRC’s use of discovery assessments to collect underpaid tax.
