The consultation on draft clauses is intended to make sure that the legislation works as intended.

Each measure comprises:

  • a tax information and impact note (TIIN) which sets out what the legislation seeks to achieve, why the government is undertaking the change and a summary of the expected impacts
  • draft legislation
  • an explanatory note which provides a more detailed guide to the legislation
