Is that a yellow rosette on George Osborne?
There's a lot of chatter in the media today about this:
ConservativeHome's ToryDiary: Lowering and simplifying tax for small business
George Osborne is giving a speech to the Chartered Institute for Personnel and Development and the British Chambers of Commerce today, about simplifying the administration of income tax, national insurance and VAT.
Here's the original:
Liberal Democrat Manifesto for Business (2005)
Liberal Democrat top policies for business:
- Carry out the biggest act of deregulation by scrapping the DTI.
- Carry out independent impact assessments on new regulations.
- Introduce a sunset clause on new regulation.
- Reform business rates with an allowance for small businesses.
- Simplify the tax system to ease the burden on small businesses in particular
- Focus on increasing skills of the workforce.
You can read the rest on the Lib Dems' publicly accessible policy pages. Cut and paste as much as you like George!
