This Government recognises the value of co-operatives and other mutually owned businesses. The Government\u2019s policy is to maintain a level playing field between co-operatives and other legal forms.<\/p>

<\/p>

In 2014, the coalition government introduced a number of measures to support the co-operative sector, including consolidating all the existing laws, to make it easier for societies to understand and apply the legislative framework and the rules governing them. The coalition government also simplified the electronic registration process to help new societies start up.<\/p>

<\/p>

In February 2018 the Government brought forward a measure to bring audit requirements for small co-operatives into line with those for small companies. This measure came into force on 6 April, and will save growing societies thousands of pounds in auditors\u2019 fees that companies of the same size do not have to pay.<\/p>

The freeze in fuel duty announced at Autumn Budget 2017 is forecast to cost the Exchequer £830 million in its first year. These costs continue in future years.<\/p>

<\/p>

Freezes since 2011 have meant the Exchequer has not collected around £46 billion in revenues through to 2018-19, and a further £38 billion will be foregone over the Budget forecast period as a result of these previously announced freezes.<\/p>
