Government policymaking and implementation for tax incentives is too slow for global competitiveness
Conclusion
The Government is right to commit to maintaining the competitiveness of the UK’s tax incentives, and changes must be balanced with stability. Yet the production sector is much more agile than Government, and the time it took to reform expenditure credits for VFX shows that policymaking and implementation needs to be quicker to keep the UK’s tax incentives globally competitive. (Conclusion, Paragraph 74)
