This measure simplifies the calculation of trust charges by removing the need to include non-relevant property in the calculation. It also introduces new rules about adding property to more than one relevant property trust on the same day to protect Inheritance Tax revenues from the use of multiple trusts. The measure also includes changes to the relevant property trust legislation to provide more certainty and to ease the effect of the legislation.
