The UK faces compounding fiscal pressures: a swelling adult social care budget, rising debt-servicing costs, and a persistent temptation to raise revenue in ways that erode the very economic activity on which public spending ultimately depends. How should the tax system be reformed to encourage enterprise rather than discourage it?
On 21 May, CEME welcomes Tom Clougherty — a leading authority on UK tax reform, formerly Executive Director of the Institute of Economic Affairs and Head of Tax at the Centre for Policy Studies — to Westminster to set out the case. Naomi Wells, Partner in the Tax practice at Azets, and CEME’s Director Philip Krinks, will respond.
Location: One Great George Street, Westminster, SW1P 3AA.
Time: The event begins at 6:45pm with the talks from 7:00pm, followed by a drinks reception.
