BVRLA News The bimonthly newsletter of the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association
Industry rallies against company car ‘tax raid’ The BVRLA and a coalition of other fleet industry stakeholders are working together to oppose yet another government tax raid on the company car market. HM Revenue & Customs wants to change the way employee benefits are taxed and has put forward plans that could affect up to 650,000 people who have taken a salary sacrifice car or receive a vehicle as part of a ‘cash or car’ benefit scheme.
Employee Benefits Consultation: What’s at stake? 650,000 people receive a salary sacrifice or cash alternative company car. 3 in 4 salary sacrifice car scheme members are basic rate taxpayers. 217,000 new cars are registered annually as a result of the employerprovided car market. 37% – the proportion of these cars built in the UK or containing a UK-built engine. 37,000 jobs are supported by the employer-provided car market.
The BVRLA and its members have joined forces with Fleet News, ACFO, car manufacturers and a wide cross section of public and private sector employers to share their concerns with a range of ministers, MPs and policymakers. The BVRLA believes the current company car benefit-in-kind tax (BiK) system provides a fair, equitable and
administratively simple way of estimating the cash equivalent of a company car for tax purposes. It says the new proposals would introduce confusion and inequity into the system by requiring employers to change or increase their reporting requirements and by taxing an employee who has a cash alternative to their company car differently from one who has exactly the same vehicle but no cash alternative. The BVRLA says the present tax system works for businesses, is fair for drivers and has proven very successful in helping the government meet its policy goal of increasing the uptake of low emission vehicles. Salary sacrifice and ‘perk’ company cars are the dominant source of ultra-low emission vehicle (ULEV) registrations in the UK, partly because drivers use the incentives within the current company car tax regime to reduce their BiK tax bill. The BVRLA warns that these incentives would disappear under the new proposals, which would see the average person opting for a ULEV being left hundreds of pounds a year worse off. ULEV registrations are likely to plummet, it says, as drivers choose a cheaper, higher-emission company car, use their cash allowance to fund a second-hand car, or opt-out of their employer’s salary sacrifice scheme. “Our analysis suggests that the governments’ proposals could actually reduce overall tax revenues, stifle the uptake of ultra-low emission cars and have a negative impact on cash-strapped public sector employers,” said BVRLA Chief Executive Gerry Keaney. u

Comment By Gerry Keaney, BVRLA Chief Executive
Change is afoot, but we’re used to adapting to challenges In 2017 the BVRLA will celebrate its golden anniversary. The past 50 years have shown that our industry can overcome challenges and adapt to changing environments very quickly. Right now the industry is growing and your association is in its strongest shape ever. We have nearly 900 members, responsible for almost five million vehicles. Members are experiencing growth in many areas and there is strong demand from SMEs, corporate customers and consumers as they learn the benefits of renting and leasing cars, rather than owning them. What powers these cars is changing as well. Developments in battery technology and hybrid powertrains have allayed fears of range anxiety – some electric cars can travel more than 150 miles on a full charge, and there are now
plug-in versions of fleet favourites like the Audi A3, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C-Class and VW Golf. The pace of this change has the potential to catch out many people, including government officials. The Office for Low Emission Vehicles has already revised its plug-in grant structure to reward the cars that can travel farthest on electric power alone with the biggest discounts. There are other changes ahead: uncertainties following the vote to leave the European Union, and current government consultations on benefit-in-kind, salary sacrifice and ultra-low emission vehicles. These changes could reshape our industry, but your association will continue to play a major role in ensuring that our sector overcomes the challenges that are set out on the road ahead.

Patrick Cusworth: Senior Policy Advisor at the BVRLA – on point for amassing evidence to put before the Treasury
Autumn Statement brings BVRLA to action stations to brief policymakers As well as calling for cars to be exempted from the salary sacrifice proposals (page 1), the BVRLA is also using its Autumn Statement submission to highlight a number of areas in which the government could support the rental and leasing industry. The main thrust of the BVRLA’s submission centres around the unfair tax burden being placed on the sector. Chief Executive Gerry Keaney’s opening request is that Chancellor Philip Hammond reconsider the current system and levels of company car taxation, particularly given the 2% increase from 2017-18 and the delay in removing the 3% diesel supplement. This supports the government’s own consultation into the company car tax bandings for Ultra-Low Emission Vehicles, which the BVRLA is responding to separately, as it believes the cleanest cars should be incentivised beyond 2020.

The association has also suggested that HM Treasury consider reviewing the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) refund rules, which restrict the amount of tax refunded when a vehicle is disposed of in the first year. This will have a big impact on rental companies from April 2017 as these companies will no longer be able to get a full refund for any vehicles emitting more than 110g/km CO2. In its example, the BVRLA highlighted that the new rules will result in a loss of £25 per vehicle, which is significant when this process happens twice a year and car hire companies operate hundreds of thousands of vehicles. Elsewhere, the BVRLA has noted a discussion document by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) that looks at changes to the existing tax rules for the leasing of plant or machinery following the publication of the new lease accounting standard. HMRC wants to ensure that any tax changes take into
account the current and expected future commercial environment, that they introduce simplification where possible and that there is strong protection of revenue for the Exchequer. The discussion document looks at how these might be achieved, and is considering four options – the status quo, an accounts-based regime, an accountsbased regime with a leasing allowance and an account-based regime with capital allowances. Finally, the BVRLA is repeating its calls for mileage adjustment companies to be regulated, following a question on clocking in another Department for Transport consultation. u To find out more about the BVRLA’s policy work, contact Senior Policy Advisor Patrick Cusworth.

Minister extols car rental’s ‘extra choice’ Transport Minister Andrew Jones has praised the car hire industry for giving people “extra choice for getting around” and making travelling “healthier, more sustainable and accessible to all”.
for getting around and it can help make travelling healthier, more sustainable and accessible to all. We want to help to reduce congestion and emissions and these figures show that car rental
Jones, a Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Transport, was responding to the publication of the BVRLA’s Car Rental Customer Survey, which found that rental is used by a diverse range of people for a wide variety of purposes. It also revealed that car hire customers have more sustainable travel habits than the average licence holder. The minister said: “Pay-as-you-go car use has grown sharply in recent years as young people delay buying a vehicle, and this report shows the important role rental plays. Car hire gives people extra choice
customers help deliver that ambition as they tend to walk, cycle and use public transport more often.” The research was conducted by transport research body TRL on behalf of the BVRLA, and reported that car rental enables a large number of drivers to avoid owning a car or to own fewer cars, and rental cars are used more efficiently than private cars. u BVRLA members can download the report from the research section of the BVRLA website: www.bvrla.co.uk For more information on the BVRLA’s research, contact Research & Insight Manager Phil Garthside.

Members set out sector’s wish list for Brexit deal The BVRLA has held its first discussion event for members to help frame the sector’s position on issues arising from June’s referendum vote for the UK to leave the European Union. As part of this roundtable event, members expressed a preference for the UK to remain as part of the European Single Market, and also raised concerns about the continuation of certain European Regulations and Directives as part of UK law. Since the roundtable, the Prime Minister has announced that European Directives previously adopted into UK law will remain, but that the government will remove those that are excessive, burdensome, or irrelevant to British business. Some European Directives that members suggested
could be dispensed with include current limitations on commercial vehicle drivers’ hours and the legal requirement for HGVs to be re-tested every two years (which the BVRLA would like to be replaced by a threeyearly re-test). The BVRLA will continue to consult with its members throughout 2017 at events and committee meetings, and remains in regular contact with government to highlight the concerns of the sector.

With the number of BVRLA leasing brokers set to hit 300 this year, the association’s Leasing Broker Committee met auditors CCAS to discuss the latest trends being picked up in its audits of new and existing members. The auditors have conducted 144 inspections this year, with the vast majority resulting in a pass or advisory pass. A number of members expressed concern before their audit and felt it was unnecessary, given that they had just been through the Financial Conduct Authority’s authorisation process. Afterwards, however, many had high praise for the process – especially as it identified both key weaknesses and areas of potential growth. Some areas needing improvement were:

GOLF DAY 2016
Golf Day goes down to the wire
More than 70 people took part in the BVRLA’s 13th Annual Golf Day on 8 September, which this year took place at the challenging course of the Oxfordshire Golf Club. After coffee and bacon rolls, some 18 teams tackled the fairways and greens, in changing weather conditions. There were individual and team Stableford competitions, with the electronic scoring sponsored by Hertz. Refreshments were provided at a half-way house, and participants enjoyed a three-course lunch after completing the 18 holes. The individual event was won by Daphne Fagan from AFL Fleet Management, with second place going to Daphne’s AFL colleague Donna Methven.
After the countback, the first place trophy went to the Hill Dickinson LLP team (pictured, bottom left). Narrowly missing out was ALD Automotive, while RAC rounded out the podium by coming third. The Nearest The Pin trophy went to Keith Hawes of Nationwide Vehicle Contracts, while Andy Brookes from FCA Fleet Services hit the longest drive of the day.
The BVRLA’s next Golf Day has been booked for September 2017. To reserve your place, contact Events Executive Fran Hampson.
