  15. Summary • Have benefited from VAT rate rise to 20%, but • Have also brought spending down faster. • As a result we have a balanced budget. • Have protected spending in Health services, Social Security and Capital Programme. • Have avoided further tax rises (ie National Insurance). • Need to maintain confidence against future “shocks”.

  16. International Issues • Zero ten applies equally to all companies, and is code compliant. • EU working group have considered ARI (Attribution regime) within personal tax, and have concluded that it does in conjunction with zero-ten give rise to harmful effects. • This could widen scope of code group, or create conflict with EU. • We are proposing abolition of ARI from April 2012.
