Oh and by the way what are taxable supplies and what is exempt from VAT.We look at the reliefs that are available? Is it always a flat 20% or what can VAT to the reduced rate of 5%.  For example 'empty homes condition' is looking at what are the criteria to get within the relief, before you commence  development.What is the difference between zero rated and an exempt supply and how do various scenarios the impact of this?Giving us an example of partial exemption in simple terms - a fish and chip shop with a flat above.  For VAT purposes everything comes under the same VAT number.  Apportionments are required between the taxable supplies for the fish and chip shop and the income that relates to the exempt supply of renting out the flat.  Confused - then listen on.Jane runs us through the latest VAT cases and updates.An episode not to be missed that simply highlights the importance of taking expert advice.For more information about Bell Howley Perrotton LLP go to our websitehttps://www.bellhowleyperrotton.co.uk/To get in touch with Simon or Amanda their contact details can be found hereTeam (bellhowleyperrotton.co.uk)

In this podcast episode, Simon Howley ATT (Fellow) CTA ATA AFA MIPA and I are joined by Richard Gray Barrister and Ruby Keeler Williams to discuss how Elysium Law can help you recover your costs, lost fees, and interest from a scheme promoter who has provided potentially negligent advice.  But time is ticking.  Given HMRC have taken the unusual step in publishing Spotlight 63 and are now sending out nudge letters, information is in the public domain that you are obliged to act upon.  Adopting a 'wait and see' approach is not an option.  HMRC is very slow and cumbersome and may take many years to contact all landlords caught up in this mess. And for those that have done nothing the penalties will be severe.   You only have 6 years to begin litigation for recovery of your losses.  That seems like a long time, but your matter needs to be reviewed, the evidence collated and the protocols followed.  This takes weeks and months.  So the take away from this episode - Act Now!For more information about Bell Howley Perrotton LLP go to our websitehttps://www.bellhowleyperrotton.co.uk/To get in touch with Simon or Amanda their contact details can be found hereTeam (bellhowleyperrotton.co.uk)
