The measures announced by Chancellor Alistair Darling in his second Budget Report will affect the majority of small businesses and their agents. 

Commenting on the 2009 Budget Report, leading tax expert Tim Good of PTP Ltd (www.ptptraining.com) and Now Training (www.ptpnow.co.uk) said “Whenever a budget speech is lauded as ‘taking from the rich to give to the poor’ it is inevitable that the average accountant and tax adviser will have a lot to deal with in the aftermath for their clients and themselves. 

“Alistair Darling’s proposed changes to higher rates of income tax, pension tax relief, savings taxes and capital allowances will affect almost everyone in small business and require the urgent attention of their advisers”

Tim will be considering all of the major announcements from Budget day in his usual educational and entertaining manner in central London on Monday 27th April and then in Birmingham the following day for only £99 + VAT per delegate and £75 + VAT for any further delegates from the same organisation. Full details are available at www.ptptraining.com.
