Newnham College Case

Posted by Tkwhitehouse PM | on Wed, 02/05/2012 - 10:29 708 4 comments | report

I have a private school client looking to build a new annex. It will be a complete new build. It's not going to be used for residential accomodation which I understand means that it will be standard rated. The school is not VAT registered.

I've been looking into ways to get around a sizable VAT bill and came across the Newnham College Library case. Does anyone know if a similar scheme would work here? If so does anyone know someone who would look into this on a no win / no fee basis?

Thanks

Tim

HMRC guidance is not the law
