The chancellor stands firm on the government’s commitment to R&D tax relief. The government have announced sweeping measures to turbocharge the UK economy and commitment to R&D was underlined with a massive £22bn investment.
The budget highlights for R&D were:
- Increase RDEC rate from 12% to 13%
- R&D support for distilleries to go green
- £22bn increase to R&D spends – spending review will cover the details
- £800m set up of an ARPA styled model
- £400m university support outside of London and the South East
- £4,000 NI allowance will have a small negative impact on R&D claims
