In May 2006, HM Revenue & Customs published a consultation document on the taxation of life assurance companies. The consultation document is aimed at companies carrying on life assurance business, their advisers and the representative bodies representing insurance companies. It does not directly concern policy holders.
The closing date for responses was 23 September 2006. A short explanation of what the consultation is about is also published.
