A group of leading UK auditors and financial experts have issued a warning to the government, cautioning that its plans for a major tax reform could be 'rushed' and lead to significant operational and legal snags.
The warnings come as Chancellor Rachel Reeves is reportedly considering a number of major tax changes, including a new property tax and reforms to inheritance tax.
The auditors' concerns center on the need for a thorough consultation process and a careful implementation plan to avoid unintended consequences and to ensure that the new rules are clear and fair.
They argue that a 'rushed' reform could create confusion for businesses and individuals, lead to an increase in disputes, and undermine the government's goals.
The warning is a call for a more considered and collaborative approach to tax policy-making.
It highlights the importance of engaging with experts and stakeholders to ensure that any new tax laws are well-designed and can be implemented effectively.
The commentary from the auditing community underscores the complexity of tax reform and the risks of a fast-tracked approach.
