Budget Summaries

APSCo UK and OutSource prepare detailed budget and financial statement summaries within 24 hours of the Chancellor’s speeches. These summaries cover the key tax changes announced in the Chancellor’s speeches, include tables of the main rates and allowances and a calendar of the tax year with important deadline dates shown.  APSCo recommends that members review financial plans regularly as some aspects of budgets are not implemented until later dates. 

These summaries are also produced in a quality booklet format and mailed to all members to be used throughout the year as an easy reference guide.
