MARRIED COUPLES TO BE OFFERED TAX BREAKS BEFORE THE NEXT ELECTION
25 June 2013
There has been widespread reporting today of the news that the coalition government intends to introduce tax breaks for married couples before the next election. It has been suggested that wives or husbands who do not work would be able to transfer part of their tax- free allowance to their spouse if their partner earned less than the basic rate of tax, currently £34,370 a year. However, despite speculation that this could be introduced in April 2015, there is still no official government announcement, and any plans would need to be agreed by Parliament before implementation.
The CIPP policy team is keeping a close eye on any developments to ensure we are included in any discussions regarding introduction of this policy.
