Brexit must become an exit from British tax dumping. The rejection of the Brexit agreement by the British House of Commons has made the modalities of the Brexit even more incalculable. However, for the Greens\/EFA group in the European Parliament it is clear that any future agreement between Britain and the EU must put an end to tax havens in the UK\u2019s overseas territories. The practice of zero tax on company profits in essentially all British overseas territories must no longer be exploited for international tax dodging. In a future outside the EU, the United Kingdom must continue to have an effective state aid framework since this instrument can also be used to fight aggressive tax dodging. Special tax deals for non-UK residents with income abroad (\u201cnon-dom\u201d) are unfair tax competition and must be abolished. The EU must challenge the UK\u2019s tax haven activities and make a reform of the tax system a condition of any future trade agreement with the UK.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We kindly invite you to our conference \u201cBrexit and the future of tax havens\u201d on Tuesday, 22 January 2019, at 15:30<\/b>. You are encouraged to follow the two panels in person in the European Parliament or at home via web stream. The first panel will address the UK\u2019s role in financial secrecy services and the tools that the EU should mobilise to prevent the UK from evolving towards a tax haven on the EU\u2019s doorstep. The second panel will assess the tax reforms that have been adopted in recent years at EU level and make recommendations to address the remaining loopholes in the fight against tax havens.<\/p>\n
