A fair tax motion by Labour councillors Joanne Ainscough and Jean Parr has called for the city council to approve a fair tax declaration and encourage the Fair Tax Mark accreditation scheme for business
Lancaster City Council is to look at the implications of supporting a campaign to encourage, or ensure, businesses pay tax fairly and tackle tax avoidance and loopholes.It comes as some other Lancashire councils are discussing their influence and purchasing power with contracts, responsible tax conduct, better pay or other policies which, arguably, would keep more money in local economies. Examples include West Lancashire and Ribble Valley in different ways.
“A responsible local authority should be working for proper tax collection and know who is paying it. I want the council to encourage good businesses, not those which put money on off-shore havens. The officer said some requirements appeared straight forward and were already done. However some others were complicated and could create significant work for council staff or challenges from outside.
