HMRC intend the regulations to be made in early March, so that they will be effective for chargeable events from 6 April 2007 onwards.

HMRC would be interested to receive any comments on the technicalities of the draft regulations and these should be sent by 22 February to: Tony Key, HMRC Inheritance Tax, Ferrers House, PO Box 38, Castle Meadow Road, Nottingham NG1 2BB.
