Employer Bulletin - August 2016 19 August 2016

HMRC have published the latest issue the Employer Bulletin, a must read for employers and agents to find out the latest information on payroll topics and issues.

There are as usual a variety of important and interesting articles in the latest bi-monthly bulletin . Below are 3 items worth highlighting:

Apollo Fuels judgment Apollo Fuels had an arrangement whereby the company would lease second hand cars to its employees as opposed to providing them free and appealed against the decision to treat this as a benefit in kind. The First Tier Tribunal and the Upper Tribunal both found that the price paid under the leases was market value and consequently there was no benefit to the employees. HMRC appealed to the Court of Appeal who concluded that a benefit in its ordinary sense has to exist before Chapter 6 applies (Chapter 6 is the shorthand for Chapter 6, Part 3 Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (ITEPA) – the chapter that contains the legislation for car benefits-in-kind). The case is now final.
