At a roundtable discussion at the Treasury on 24 July a range of external stakeholders including the Association of Taxation Technicians discussed their priorities for the tax system under the new government.
The ATT's key priorities were:

- expanding access to digital services and ensuring agents can see and do everything their clients can online;
- boosting taxpayer confidence by avoiding frequent changes in tax policy;
- consulting on ways to address 'cliff edges' in the tax system which are a disincentive to growth;
