Our work programmes

Towards the end of each financial year, TCO prepares a draft programme of priority work for the following year. The criteria for inclusion in the programme are things like the importance of the issues involved, the level of uncertainty/ambiguity, the number of taxpayers potentially affected, the need to resolve existing issues, and the potential revenue implications. The draft programme is consulted on with key stakeholders, before being published here.

Both the Tax Counsel Office and Technical Standards produce public guidance items.
