The Institute for Fiscal Studies has launched a new website TaxLab, a ‘one-stop shop‘ providing impartial explainers, answers and data on the UK tax system. IFS TaxLab has been created to provide better access to impartial information about how the UK tax system works, the effects it has on different people and businesses, and the options for reform.
The articles draw on decades of IFS expertise and analysis, and are edited and written by Deputy Director Helen Miller, Senior Research Economist Stuart Adam and Research Economist Isaac Delestre. The website is live at: ifs.org.uk/taxlab
