A major change to the UK's tax system starts on April 1st. Is business ready for the VAT reporting shake-up? Making Tax Digital means businesses with an annual turn-over of more than £85,000 a year must file and submit their quarterly accounts using digital software which is compliant with the new system set up by HMRC. The Government says the initiative will increase the tax take. But small businesses have expressed concerns over the costs of upgrading software and getting to grips with the new system. Joining Louise Cooper are Theresa Middleton, Director of Making Tax Digital at HMRC and Anita Montheith, Technical Manager at The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.
