HMRC’s Pension schemes newsletter no 166 confirms plan to improve tax code system
United Kingdom | Publication | January 2025
One of the items in the latest Pension Schemes Newsletter confirms improvements to the system for tax coding in paying private pensions with effect from April 2025.
HMRC said it will act much more quickly to replace emergency tax codes with regular tax codes on newly paid pensions which will ensure that the correct amount of tax is deducted.
For many years, pension savers have been overtaxed and have had to jump through hoops to claim back their own money. The new system should mean that many more people are quickly moved on to the correct tax code and no longer end up with an overpayment of tax.
This is good news for those taking regular income from income drawdown, but the problem has not been resolved for those taking lump sums.

Understanding hydrogen in Canada
Hydrogen has long been of interest as a low emission or emission-free energy source. For Canada, its use, production, and transportation loom as a new energy disruptor. As a fuel, hydrogen is a clean power source that when combusted, produces no carbon dioxide emissions, only water vapour. Some methods used to produce hydrogen do, however, generate emissions.
