Tightening the screw on tax planning

Article Abstract:

The treasury said that its intention was to improve clarity and transparency, but aspects of the implementation of the rules will certainly lead to widespread confusion. The hapless European savings tax directive, which has been further delayed until July 2005, is another example of rules designed to ensure domestic taxpayers are not using tax planning devices in other European Union member states or their related territories (Jersey, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Andorra, Monaco and a whole clutch of countries in the Caribbean).
