BALPA members should get formal notification by the end of next week or the beginning of following week. It is important to get the procedures with the Inland Revenue right and the local Tax Offices need to be alerted. In addition a FAQ sheet needs to be produced particularly for those who might fall outside the agreement for one reason or another.
The actual figure agreed with the IR is 66.7%( of BALPA subscriptions that can be considered as an 'expense in employment').
