The Financial Secretary to the Treasury (Jesse Norman)
I have today laid before Parliament “Tax policies and consultations—Spring 2021” [CP 404].
The measures set out in this Command Paper will shape the next steps in delivering the Government tax administration strategy, announced in July 2020. The Command Paper also includes a range of important policy announcements and updates which will support wider improvements in the tax system, including on business rates and environmental taxes, as well as measures to drive down non-compliance and enhance simplification.
By announcing these tax measures and consultations separately from the Budget, the Government are seeking to provide greater visibility and transparency for parliamentarians, tax professionals and other stakeholders, in order to increase the overall quality of tax policy and legislation.
Copies of the paper are available in the Vote Office and the Printed Paper Office and at: www.gov.uk/ government/publications/tax-policies-and-consultations-spring-2021.
