Programme
The UK film industry has been on tenterhooks waiting to learn the details of what will replace the tax benefits provided by Section 48 of the Finance (No.2) Act 1997. This Seminar will analyse the new tax changes and explain how the new tax credit will work in practice. We will consider issues such as:

• how much the new tax credit will be worth to producers
• who can use the credit
• whether the credit can be combined with other tax benefits
• transitional provisions
• how the changes will affect UK producers and the UK film industry
