It's good to talk

Article Abstract:

Consultation is considered as a two-way process in which a suggestion by the government is discussed and replies are collected and carefully evaluated in a specified time period after which a decision is taken, whereas a poor initial consultation may result in weeks of discussion before amendments are made to the original proposal. The trusts proposal and Lord Carter's report are leading examples of present situations of improper consultations wherein the proposals were accepted without prior debate.

Some of the proposals to decrease the trust gap between the Revenue and tax practitioners include taking business people into the non-executive tax policy arm of the Treasury and a voluntary code of conduct to be signed both by tax advisors and the Revenue.
