About
A desktop review focusing on three specific areas of tax policy:
- The link between Impôts duties on alcohol and tobacco and health considerations
- The income forecasting model used by the Department for Treasury and Resources
- Changes in the taxation burden on individual taxpayers and the link between tax revenue income for the States and increases in population
The review will examine existing evidence and statistics in relation to each area identified above.
Parts 1 and 2 of the review (Impôts Duties and income forecasting model) have been published (copies available below).
