  • Tax Strategy
    This document, approved by the board of Hachette UK, sets out the Group’s approach to conducting its tax affairs and dealing with tax risks in compliance with schedule 19 of the Finance Act 2016 for the year ending 31 December 2020. The Hachette UK Group is committed to: • Following all applicable laws and regulations relating to its tax activities and submitting all returns by their due dates. • Maintaining an open and honest relationship with the tax authorities based on collaboration and integrity. • Applying diligence and care in our management of the processes and procedures by which all tax related activities are undertaken, and ensuring that our tax governance is appropriate. • Using incentives and reliefs to minimise the tax cost of conducting our business while ensuring that these reliefs are not used for purposes which are knowingly contradictory to the intent of the legislation. Risk management Managing the Group’s tax affairs is a complex process across many functional areas of the business and as such there will inevitably be risks of error or omission within those processes (tax risks), which may result in the incorrect application of tax rules or calculation of tax returns. Eliminating tax risks entirely is impossible. Therefore, the Group’s attitude towards the level of control required over the processes designed to reduce these tax risks is driven by the likelihood of occurrence and scale of the impact of each risk. The identified tax risks are then assessed on a case by case basis, allowing the Group to arrive at well-reasoned conclusions on how each individual risk should be managed.
