Views are sought on the effectiveness of the Office of Tax Simplification (OTS), established in 2010 and made a permanent, independent office of the Treasury in 2015.

In line with the terms of reference, the Treasury is required to review the work of the OTS every five years and it would welcome views on

  • the OTS’s objectives and functions;
  • the resourcing, funding and governance;
  • its relationships with HMRC and the Treasury;
  • its work to date - chancellor commissioned and own-initiative reports; and
  • the impact of its work on the government’s approach to simplification and on wider public debate.

 Comments should be emailed to otsreview@hmtreasury.gov.uk by 6 July 2021.
