Mr. Michael Brown: To ask the Prime Minister what changes are planned to be made to the memorandum of understanding of 5 February
1993 under which the Queen and the Prince of Wales pay income, capital gains and inheritance tax on a voluntary basis, to take
account of the introduction of the new system of self-assessment for income tax and capital gains tax. [40950]
The Prime Minister: Yes, a change is required to reflect the new tax payment dates under self-assessment. The memorandum of
understanding has been amended, and I am placing a copy of the amendment in the Library.
The memorandum of understanding provided that income tax and capital gains tax would be payable on 1 December following the end of
the tax year. However, under self-assessment, 1 December will no longer be a tax payment date, and instead income tax will be
payable on 31 January and 31 July and capital gains tax on 31 January. The memorandum of understanding has therefore been amended to
make income tax and capital gains tax for 1996-97--the transitional year payable on 31 January 1998; and income tax and capital
gains tax for 1997-98 and subsequent years will be payable on 31 January and 31 July in accordance with the normal rules of self
assessment.
These new arrangements mean tax will be paid under the memorandum of understanding several months earlier on average than at
present.
Changes have also been made to the provisions relating to payments on account, and interest on tax underpaid or overpaid, to bring
them into line with the new self-assessment rules.
