About the course

Hidden amongst all the chaos and change experienced during the pandemic, the annual Finance Bill has worked its way through parliament to become law in late July. The changes affect all areas of tax and many of its provisions apply retrospectively, so it is critical that we do not lose sight of the need to stay up to date.

This course will keep you up to date with all the changes in personal, business, capital and indirect taxes, along with the impact of COVID-19 on tax in the UK.
