I don’t have a DCPU, but is this now saying that they will attract the same Benefit In Kind tax treatment as cars?

 

If so that will be a blow for a lot of people.

[devon TWiG]

Yes it would appear so !!

Haven’t they been saying this for about 15 years though?

"Transitional BIK arrangements will apply for employers that have purchased, leased, or ordered a double cab pick-up before 6 April 2025. The Treasury also says they will be able to use the previous treatment, until disposal, lease expiry or a fixed date of 5 April 2029, whichever is sooner.

The announcement from the Government comes after the previous Conservative Government announced a similar rule-change in February 2024, which it then reversed after it faced a significant backlash from the fleet sector due to the increase in costs for drivers, as well as the impact on the pick-up truck market."

Just another Labour hit on the “wrong” kind of worker.  There’s going to be growth in the public sector which does not generate wealth or growth and not much else it would seem.

Itcould cost me an extra £300 per month to do my work! Or my employer will have to increase my salary and pay even more PAYE! How does that encourage growth?

What's the crack then? Anyone summerise for a business owner using for work? 

 

Or is it for large companies buying for staff etc?
