View answerAs the Deputy will be aware, I made a commitment in Budget 2016 to examine the potential for income averaging for tax purposes for artists. This examination is currently ongoing. I will consider the outcome of the examination as part of my deliberations for the Budget, and any actions arising will be announced on Budget day, October 11, 2016. The review will also be published on Budget day.
