KPMG LLP in the U.K. reports that the government has published a consultation, including draft legislation, on putting the Statement of Practice 1/09 (SP1/09) into statute. SP1/09 covers practical issues facing Resident but Not Ordinarily Resident (R/NOR) employees working in the U.K. as a consequence of changes made in the law relating to the remittance basis of taxation in Finance Act 2008, and the gradual steps taken by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) to deal with these concerns. HMRC has been wanting to incorporate SP1/09 in legislation for some time.
