The same tax rules must apply identically to everyone in the same situation, regardless of their employer.</p><p> </p><p>Pensions tax relief is one of the most expensive reliefs in the personal tax system. In 2017/18 income tax and employer National Insurance Contributions relief cost over £50 billion, with around two-thirds going to higher and additional rate taxpayers.</p><p> </p><p>The Government has listened carefully to specific concerns raised by some high-earning NHS consultants impacted by annual allowance tax charges.</p><p> </p><p>In response, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care has announced his intention to consult on proposals for a new 50:50 option providing pension flexibility for senior clinicians in the NHS. This flexibility will give senior clinicians in England and Wales more choice in respect of their pension accrual, and therefore the ability to control better any pensions tax charges.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 19/07/2019 12:03:41 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
