Core Tax Books

Alternatives

Didn't find your answer?

Hi all - I usually purchase the Tolley's Core Tax book every year, however the publishing date for 2016/17 seems to have been pushed back to the end of October. Does anyone use any alternatives that they could recommend?

Thanks,

Hi Pedre,

My name is Joanne Bowditch and I work for Tolley as their Digital Marketing Manager.

I understand your frustration on this but there is a good reason for why we have delayed our publishing schedule.

The EU referendum campaign meant there was insufficient time for the Finance Bill to be progressed in the normal way before Parliament finished for the summer recess. The Parliamentary timetable has therefore been updated so that the Finance Bill will not be published until September 2016. And then Royal Ascent will be delivered in either September or October. As always, we need to ensure that our titles are completely up-to-date with the latest tax changes, and so they will not be published until the Bill becomes law. We believe that if we were to publish earlier we would be doing our customers a gross injustice and be acting in a negligent manner as the titles would have to either, be based on the same Finance Act as last years editions, or, be based on conjecture and assumptions. We appreciate that this disrupts people's normal processes, as it has greatly disrupted our own, but we hope that our loyal customers will bear with us as we navigate the Government's modified timetable so that we can continue to deliver the same high quality content that they are used to.

If you have any other concerns or queries, please feel free to contact me directly on here or email [email protected]

Agreed. I doubt that any publisher will want to stick their neck out and publish before the Finance Bill becomes an act.
