The US commitment to drop retaliatory tax measures removes a major source of uncertainty for UK companies. UK government has worked hard with peers to remove this uncertainty & prioritise investment in the UK. Now a focus on a multilateral agreement with UK competitiveness key.
@SecScottBessent Important action by @SecScottBessent, after intensive collective effort, providing certainty for business. Look forward to further work with global partners to ensure a level playing field on tax. We are breaking down barriers and delivering in Britain's national interest.
