Details

Rollover relief allows Capital Gains Tax and Corporation Tax on chargeable gains to be deferred where the proceeds from disposing of certain qualifying assets are reinvested into new qualifying assets. This helps businesses modernise and expand.

The measure ensures farmers are not disadvantaged by changes to the European Union’s agricultural subsidy scheme.
