Policy perspectives: Tax law

In the sixth of our series of events highlighting the work we do to respond to potential changes in the law, Co-Convener of the Tax Law Sub-Committee, Bob Langridge, and Member of the Tax Law sub-committee, Caroline Colliston, will provide an overview of the recent activity the Law Society of Scotland has undertaken to advocate for solicitors' interests in the context of changes to tax law. 

In this one-hour, free to attend session, we will cover:

• The work the Tax Law Sub-Committee has undertaken in the previous 18 months concerning the UK Government’s reforms to tax law.
• The upcoming changes to tax adviser registration coming into force from May 2026.

This session offers a chance for practitioners to hear how the Law Society is helping shape reforms to this important area of law and to share your views to inform this engagement.

To register for this event or if you have any questions, please email us at memberservices@lawscot.org.uk

Our policy perspectives series is a chance for you to get an insight into the work of our policy team and the network of volunteers who analyse and respond to proposed changes in the law. As well as gaining an understanding of how policy changes could impact your day-to-day practice, this new series will also allow you to comment on our policy work whilst keeping up to speed with what’s going on across Scotland.
