Course Details

R&D tax relief is a valuable tax incentive which many companies have taken advantage of in the 21 years the legislation has existed. 

However, a recent high profile fraud case and a growing belief that the legislation is being abused has led to a tightening up of rules and an increase in HMRC enquiries. 

In this on demand CPD course, John Moxon of Yes Tax examines the current R&D tax relief climate. 

Topics covered include:

  • Fraud case involving R&D tax relief
  • First Tier Tribunal ruling involving R&D tax relief 
  • Poor adviser behaviour 
  • HMRC’s Response to the growing concerns
