  • Landfill Tax in the UK: Barriers to Increased Effectiveness and Options for the Future
    Landfill Tax in the United Kingdomi Author: Tim Elliott (Eunomia) Brief summary of the case The UK landfill tax was introduced in 1996 in order to better reflect the environmental costs of landfilling. The aim was therefore both to reduce the overall levels of waste produced and to send less waste to landfill. The tax has two bandings: inert waste, currently levied at GBP 2.65 (EUR 2.96) per tonne, and non-inert waste, currently levied at GBP 84.40 (EUR 94.21) per tonne, originally at GBP 7 per tonne.1 When the tax was first introduced, it received wide- spread support from industry, local authorities and NGOs. This was a result of the original intention for the tax to be revenue-neutral by offsetting a reduction in national Insurance Contributions. Furthermore, operators of landfill sites can offset up to 6% of their annual tax by contributing to environmental bodies under the Landfill Communities Fund. Annual revenues have risen from GBP 400 million in 1997/98 to a peak of GBP 1.2 billion in 2013/14, while revenues in 2015/16 were GBP 900 million (EUR 1 billion). The tax has had a significant impact on the quantity of waste sent to landfill: in 2001/02, 50 million tonnes annually were sent to landfill. In 2015/16, the same figure was around 12 million tonnes. A consultation exercise with industry was conducted ahead of the introduction of the tax. A key outcome of this consultation was the banding of the tax into inert and non-inert wastes and the change from an ad valorem structure to a weight-based tax.

    Jim Harra Chief Executive and Permanent Secretary Meg Hillier MP 2/75 Chair, Committee of Public Accounts 100 Parliament Street House of Commons London London SW1A 2BQ SW1A 0AA Tel 03000 585842 Ema il [email protected] 2 February 2021 Dear Chair, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has been working towards providing a simple, fairer and more consistent set of working arrangements and pay system for our employees. The reform of HMRC’s working arrangements and pay is long overdue. Largely as a result of the merger of HM Customs and Excise and the Inland Revenue in 2005, we currently have a complex array of different contracts, terms, conditions and entitlements across HMRC. These arrangements have increasingly restricted our ability to respond to the changing needs of the public we serve, whilst also generating additional costs for HMRC. Currently two thirds of HMRC colleagues are at the bottom of the pay range and we don’t want to be a living wage employer, where we have to increase pay each April to keep in step with the National Living Wage. We also have an array of working arrangements, with colleagues on different contracts, which do not always meet the needs of the Department and our customers. Last July, Ministers agreed that we should enter negotiations with the trade unions to resolve these longstanding contractual problems as part of a wider pay settlement for our staff. In the negotiations, we focused on the things that our colleagues told us matter most: a good pay offer, a permanent fix to the issues with our current pay system and, critically, changes to make our working arrangements fairer and simpler, while giving us greater flexibility to deploy our workforce to meet customers’ needs.

  • Imports and Exports
    V1-7 Liability Chapter 13 Imports and Exports Part A Goods imported before the delivery of an import entry This part not yet allocated Chapter 13 Imports and exports V1-7 Liability Part B International Collaboration (Defence) Arrangements Section 1 Background to the relief 1.1 Coverage This guidance covers the relief available under Item 2 of Group 13, Schedule 8 to the VAT Act 1994. It explains the conditions relating to the zero-rating of supplies in connection with International Collaboration (Defence) Arrangements (ICDAs). In cases where relief is not applicable under Item 2 Group 13 you will need to consider whether other zero-rating provisions apply, particularly those covered by Groups 7 and 8 of Schedule 8. 1.2 Background to the relief The relief for ICDAs has existed since the introduction of VAT. The terms of an arrangement are contained in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) or supplement thereto - see Section 3 - which contains a mutual tax waiver clause unequivocally committing all participating governments to ensure that their national taxes do not bear on the project or, failing that, to bear them themselves. The provisions of Item 2, Group 13 give a proper basis for such relief in terms of UK VAT law, without which any cost of UK VAT to other participants would fall as an additional burden on the Ministry of Defence (MOD). 1.3 HQ responsibility The HQ section responsible for this area of the tax is the Government and Education Branch. Chapter 13 Imports and exports V1-7 Liability Section 2 EC and UK Law 2.1 European VAT law There is no specific reference to International Collaboration Defence Projects (ICDPs) in EC law.

The Air Departure Tax (Scotland) Bill was introduced in the Scottish Parliament on 19 December 2016 and received Royal Assent on 25 July 2017. The Air Departure Tax (Scotland) Act 2017 introduces an Air Departure Tax (ADT) which is intended to replace Air Passenger Duty (APD) in Scotland. The fiscal framework agreement between the Scottish and UK Government states that APD will be devolved in April 2018. 1 Tax bands and tax rate amounts are not provided for in the Act and will be set by secondary legislation. The Air Departure Tax (Scotland) Bill as introduced 2 did not provide for exemptions. However, the Finance and Constitution Committee ("the Committee") stated in its Stage 1 report on the Bill: 3 “ The Committee asks the Scottish Government to respond to the suggestion that flights to Highlands and Islands airports from other Scottish airports should be exempted from the definition of chargeable aircraft.
