Review of the Tax Practitioners Board - Discussion Paper

Further to the initial round of consultation following the Government’s announcement of an independent review into the effectiveness of the Tax Practitioners Board, and based on feedback received during the initial consultative phase, a Discussion Paper was released on 1 August 2019.

The Discussion Paper is a central element of the process of consultation by the review with stakeholders. It is intended to highlight the key considerations that will be taken into account by the review.

The main issues on which feedback is sought have been identified in the Discussion Paper by Consultation Points that are highlighted throughout the Discussion Paper. Responses to these points will assist the review in its preparation of a Final Report which is due to be provided to the Government by 31 October 2019.

As part of the next round of consultation roundtables have been scheduled as follows:
