Commit to adopting the EU's anti-tax-avoidance legislation regardless of Brexit.

Petition Details

Brexit is tainted by claims it is a ploy by wealthy tax-avoiders to dodge EU legislation due to come into force in January 2020. A commitment to adopt the legislation would clear the air, help bring the country together, and secure the proper funding of public services after Brexit.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The Finance Act 2019 includes measures to ensure the UK is compliant with the Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do.
