Enterprise Zones:<br />

The Government will expand the<br />

Enterprise Zone programme in England<br />

with the announcement of 18 new sites<br />

across the country and the extension of<br />

8 sites on the current programme.<br />

Enterprise Zones offer a number of<br />

advantages, including 100% enhanced<br />

capital allowances on qualifying plant &<br />

machinery, and significantly reduced<br />

business rates. This can offer significant<br />

advantages for business, and investors,<br />

alongside the disadvantaged areas<br />

themselves.<br />

Business Investment Relief:<br />

The Government will consult on how to<br />

change the Business Investment Relief<br />

rules to encourage greater use of the<br />

relief to increase investment in UK<br />

businesses. This relief offers the<br />

opportunities for non-domiciles to bring<br />

income to capital into the UK without it<br />

being treated as a taxable remittance,<br />

where the funds are used for qualifying<br />

investment purposes. This can offer<br />

some significant advantages to clients,<br />

especially where the investment is used<br />

for tax advantaged investments, such as<br />

EIS or SEIS.<br />
