It has also been announced that the second Finance Bill will legislate for all policies that were included in the pre-election Finance Bill but had to be dropped in order to rush through the Finance Act 2017 before the snap general election in June.

The Government has re-confirmed that all policies originally announced to start from April 2017 will be effective from that date.

This means that the planned changes to corporation tax such as the new losses rules, will take effect from 1 April 2017 after all, as will the changes to deemed domicile which will take effect from 6 April 2017.
