The Government remains committed to tackling tax avoidance schemes based on Disguised Remuneration, but it has listened to concerns about the impact of the Loan Charge on individuals.

<\/p>
The Review will report back in mid-November, and the Government will set out its next steps at that point, in advance of the Loan Charge falling due on 31 January 2020.<\/p>
