CTG Annual Tax Conference
Registration is now open for CTG’s Annual Tax Conference, which is taking place on Thursday 28 April 2016, at the Wellcome Trust.
The Conference is a full-day event and there is no charge for charities and CTG Observer members.
The Tax Conference is an important opportunity for members to shape CTG’s policy priorities and, following the Budget, it is an important opportunity to review the direction of charity tax policy a year into the new Parliament. Our strategy and approach is dependent on feedback from members and we look forward to your input at the Conference.
Damian Hinds MP, the Treasury Minister responsible for charity taxation, has been invited to give the keynote speech and to update us on the Government’s plans for the sector. We also expect input from HMRC and HM Treasury officials during the day, as we seek your views on a range of topical issues.
