Income shifting
The Government firmly believes it is unfair that some individuals can arrange
their affairs to gain a tax advantage by shifting part of their income to another
person who is subject to a lower rate of tax.
The Government has considered the responses received to the recent
consultation and believes that a further period of consultation will ensure that
legislation in this area provides clarity and certainty for businesses and their
advisers.
The Government now intends to introduce legislation through Finance Bill
2009 and will not enact legislation effective from 6 April 2008.Comment
