Inheritance Tax
Asked if, according to reports, the Government was planning to crack down on the rich the PMS said that this had been dealt with yesterday. The IPPR was a think tank and they had done what think tanks do, which was to put forward proposals. The Government was not part of that and as it was made clear yesterday there was no review of inheritance tax taking place. All taxes were constantly under review but there was no special review of inheritance tax taking place.

"all taxes …….. under review"
"no review of inheritance tax"
no logic
Comment by Roger Huffadine — 24 Aug 2004 on 9:43 am | LinkDoesn’t seem that odd. Translates to "We’ve not commissioned their work, and we don’t have a team specifically looking at their findings to consider policy changes".
Don’t you think you’re being a bit hard on the Beav?
Comment by Gregory Block — 24 Aug 2004 on 2:32 pm | Link"Asked if, according to reports, the Government was planning to crack down on the rich…"
Why bother with such a combative question? Surely that’s not the way to get a useful (i.e. revealing) answer out of the PMOS?
