Scottish Taxes Update from Scottish Government and Institute for Fiscal Studies - ETN/ CIOT Seminar
The Edinburgh Tax Network and Chartered Institute of Taxation invite you to join Scottish Government officials and David Phillips from the Institute for Fiscal Studies for an update on developments in devolved taxation.
The event will take place on Thursday 10th March 2022 at the Mackenzie Building, Old Assembly Close, Edinburgh. At this event, the Scottish Government will discuss two recent tax publications, namely:
Framework for Tax, which sets out the principles and strategic objectives that will guide the Scottish Government’s approach to tax policy making and how it will manage and sequence tax policy around the fiscal cycle.
Scottish Income Tax 2018-19: policy evaluation, which includes analysis of how much revenue the policy raised, how taxpayers responded to the changes, and the impacts on the wider tax system.
David Phillips will then consider:
- Scottish income tax revenue forecasts, outturns and reconciliations - what they do and don’t mean
- Scottish income tax policy - distributional and potential behavioural impacts
- The trade-offs involved in further tax devolution
- A few thoughts on the policy framework
