Something Sir Humphrey about it being announced in this that there will be a review of the Office of Tax Simplification. [appreciate #OTS is reviewed under statute]
The government is publishing a summary of responses to the 2018 consultation ‘The Taxation of #Trusts: A Review’.4 The responses did not indicate a desire for a comprehensive reform of trust tax at this stage.
The government will keep the issues raised under review.

Dormant assets@ #charities & #socent: – Further commitment that the government will make changes in a future Finance Bill to facilitate the inclusion of the asset groups that will be in scope of the expanded scheme. This relates to Capital Gains Tax and pensions tax legislation.
