Joint Committee on Tax Law Rewrite Bills

The Joint Committee on Tax Law Rewrite Bills was a select committee of both the House of Commons and House of Lords in the Parliament of the United Kingdom. The remit of the committee was to scrutinise bills intended to make the language of tax law simpler, while preserving the effect of the existing law, subject to minor changes.[1] It scrutinized the Tax Law Rewrite Project.
