Fairness matters: UK public attitudes to corporate tax conduct

Please join us for an in-person panel session in Parliament on UK public attitudes to corporate tax conduct.

Chaired by Dame Margaret Hodge MP, speakers will include:

  • James Murray MP, Shadow Financial Secretary to the Treasury

  • Paul Monaghan, Chief Executive of Fair Tax Foundation

  • Martin McEwen, Head of Tax, SSE plc - the first FTSE100 company to secure the Fair Tax Mark

  • Penny Hogan, Financial Controller, Unity Trust Bank - the first UK bank to secure the Fair Tax Mark

Organised in partnership with the Fair Tax Foundation to mark Fair Tax Week, this parliamentary panel session will respond to their new report analysing almost a decade of UK attitudes to responsible tax conduct - covering everything from tax conditionality on government bailouts to trust in HMRC and corporate financial disclosure requirements. Join us to explore how trends over time indicate the strength of feeling towards how businesses, and government, should prioritise action. Panellists from Fair Tax Mark accredited businesses will discuss why they are voluntarily pioneering transparent and fair tax practices, and how responsible business and government can work in partnership to drive good tax conduct.
