UK chancellor Rachel Reeves, who will deliver a landmark budget in less than a month, has been urged by the influential Culture, Media & Sport Committee (CMSC) to introduce a tax relief for the print and advertising costs of indie movies.
In a letter published this morning, CMSC chair Caroline Dinenage said there are “countless films that end up not getting the audiences they deserve” due to these high costs.
The committee’s idea is that any movie that applies to the recently-introduced 40% indie tax relief would be eligible for a 25% tax relief to support the distribution and exhibition of British features.
