It has been reported that the Chancellor, George Osborne, has agreed a last minute deal within the coalition Government that will see the current top rate tax band of 50 percent, dropped to 45 percent from the start of the 2013/2014 tax year. The deal was agreed to put in place a 'tycoon tax' proposed by the Liberal Democrats. Also, as part of the last minute talks, the tax free personal allowance is to be raised at a more rapid rate when the tycoon tax is introduced.

An individual earning £180,000 in 2012/13 would pay £58,126 in income tax, whereas under the proposed plans, in 2013/2014 the tax paid would be £57,626. £500 saving.
