RED TAPE CHALLENGE

As our VAT reduction campaign continues, businesses have been invited to blow
the whistle on regulations that are both excessive and inconsistent in an effort to
reduce the compliance burden faced by many firms.

The new drive, aimed at freeing enterprises from the shackles that administering the rules often imposes, is a result of feedback that the Government has received since launching its ‘Red Tape challenge’. The challenge asked ­ firms to identify those rules where tick-box regulation, multiple inspections and contradictory advice are making it more difficult both
to run their businesses and to develop and grow.

Our latest campaign is with regard to restrictions on mobile van chimes, but please let me know if there are any other excessive redtape regulations which are proving to be a hindrance to your business.
