Tax webinar recording – investigations and R&D tax relief

Today (Wednesday 20 October) saw the third in our series of four tax webinars this week.

Sarah looked at research & development tax relief: changes, risks and housekeeping – what you and your client need to be aware of, even if you are not carrying out the claim yourself.
