Clause 68
Finance (No.2) Bill
11:45 am
Colin Breed (Shadow Minister, Treasury; South East Cornwall, Liberal Democrat)
In the explanatory notes on the background to the clause, paragraph 9 states that
“athletes not resident in the UK will not pay income tax on any income arising from their performance at the Games”.
Does that include sponsorship, advertising, media appearances—in fact, all the income that is sometimes somewhat more than that arising from their performance in the games? Sometimes income is more to do with their performance in television adverts and such like.
