When it comes, the cut in Corporation Tax will give the UK amongst the lowest corporation tax levels of any major economy – and close to Ireland’s rate of 12.5%. Earlier this year Osborne said the levy would reduce to 17% by 2020.
In the aftermath of the UK's decision to leave the European Union, business organisations said that stability was top of the list of needs.
