Tax Advisory Group

The TAG aims to provide sound, fair and efficient tax law and tax administration advice that is in the interest of New Zealanders and New Zealand business.

It advocates for policy and legislative reform that aims to result in growing the New Zealand economy and reducing compliance costs. Our New Zealand Tax Team works with the TAG to:

• make submissions to government
• undertake confidential pre-policy statement consultation
• review and comment on Inland Revenue policy statements, questions and media statements
• engage with Inland Revenue on operational policies and procedures, and
• work closely with other key stakeholders in the tax system.

The TAG members are appointed for their work experience at the partner level or equivalent and represent the breadth of the profession – large firms, corporates, small and medium practices, and academia.
