UK 2026 Autumn Budget preparations
Overview
Leading up to the Autumn Budget scheduled for 28 October, various sectors in the United Kingdom have expressed concerns regarding potential tax and regulatory shifts. In the private rental sector, landlords have voiced anxiety over income tax rates and regulatory changes, with research suggesting that tax burdens could lead to increased rents and more selective tenant screening.
As the budget approaches, specific reforms have been confirmed or anticipated. Notably, unused private pension funds are set to be included in estates for inheritance tax purposes starting in April 2027, a move experts suggest may alter retirement planning. Additionally, advocacy groups are seeking support for families with disabled children, proposing easier access to savings in Child Trust Funds and Junior ISAs, alongside the introduction of energy social tariffs to assist with medical-related energy costs.
