3.2 The Connétable of St. Helier of the Minister for Treasury and Resources regarding the reform of the administration of tax returns:

Would the Minister inform the Assembly whether there is a timetable for the reform of the administration of tax returns to enable married women to be treated equally in the eyes of the tax system and have full autonomy for their own tax affairs?

Senator A.J.H. Maclean (The Minister for Treasury and Resources):

A feasibility report on the introduction of independent taxation was published in 2013. This report indicated that recommendations for change should be included in Budget 2016 that will be debated by this Assembly later this year. That is the timetable that my department are working to, and that I support.

The Connétable of St. Helier :

I thank the Minister for his answer.
