Can furnished lettings constitute a trade for tax purposes?
Abstract
The decision of Warner J last December in the twin tax cases of Griffiths v Jackson and Griffiths re Pearman has given rise to much confusion and not a little consternation, particularly coming so soon after that of Gittos v Barclay a few months earlier. All of these cases are concerned with the perennial question of whether furnished lettings can constitute a trade for tax purposes.
