(b)prepare a report of each review; including a statement of what each of the amounts would be if it had fully retained its value; and

The Treasury’s report of the review in respect of the tax year 2003-04 was published and laid before Parliament on 23rd February 2004.
In consequence of the review the Treasury have made these Regulations, prescribing increases in certain of the sums required to be reviewed under section 41.

Regulation 3 and the Schedule amend Schedule 2 to the Working Tax Credit (Entitlement and Maximum Rate) Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/2005) by substituting a new Table prescribing the maximum rates for the elements of working tax credit other than the child care element.
