Long title

A new Finance Bill is usually presented to Parliament each year; it enacts the proposals for taxation made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Budget statement and brings them into law. At the time of the Budget the Government publishes the series of Ways and Means Resolutions, which the House must approve before the introduction of the Finance Bill. These are published on these pages in advance of the Bill being introduced.
