Hi all,
It's that time of the year when I forwarn my accountant of what awaits him This time however he told me that moves are afoot after the fiasco of certain barristers avoiding tax by declaring bankrupt, to introduce new rules/laws to parliament for approval.
I believe they are talking about removing the trust veil and 'following the money where ever it leads'. This has serious implications for all trusts set up for assett protection as the proposed legislation will make it easy for the courts to dismantle trusts by this 'following the money' proposal.
I don't have details (yet) has anyone else heard anything? Dale? As over 60% of parliamentarians operate trusts (many for assett protection) the eventual legislation may be watered down but ..........
regards, MC
