Tax exemption for personnel in the merchant navy as other countries do. |
|
Many in the merchant navy benefit for not having to pay tax due to spending long periods of time out of country, 183 days in a tax year. However if you take different routes in the merchant navy, such as inshore waters you do not benefit from this.
I believe this to be in need of some reform. |
|
In a country with such strong naval heritage and tradition, we have a great reliance on the services provided by merchant naval personnel. In 2016 alone, 95% of goods in the uk were moved by sea. For this reason all aspects of the shipboard operations deserve the same befits.
For example, those on board tug vessels; these small vessels assist by manoeuvring larger vessels round and provide them with safe access to ports. In such a crucial role in the same field they recieve no recognition. |
