The Scottish Parliament has announced that its Draft Budget 2018/19 will be published on 14 December 2017.
The parliament has taken on board recommendations from the Budget Process Review Group, resulting in an updated timetable and a year round approach to Budget scrutiny reflecting:
- Full Year Approach
- Continuous Cycle
- Output/outcome focused
- Fiscal Responsibility
- Interdependence
The Finance Secretary has asked opposition parties for confirmation of their proposals for income tax policy so as to create a discussion paper with a view to forming a consensus position. This should be published before the budget and may give a better idea of the proposals to be included.

A Scottish approach to taxation call for evidence
Wouldn’t it be great and think how much TIME it would SAVE you if someone:
- READ all the latest tax news, case decisions, new legislation and articles in tax and then summarised them for you?
- Only alerted you to things that are RELEVANT to you?
How about if that someone also:
- Updated those summaries in REAL TIME for you
- ADDED examples, planning points, toolkits and calculators, and
- Linked all that information together and also provided you with CPD?
