The Scottish government should also introduce an annual Scottish Finance Bill as part of the budget process.
Moira Kelly, chair of the CIOT’s Scottish technical committee said: ‘alongside a more long-term approach to budget planning, we believe these measures can help strengthen Holyrood’s oversight of devolved tax legislation and ensure a more transparent, effective and accountable budget process’.
