This meeting is a special event which has been added to the annual programme of ten branch meetings and two joint meetings. The meeting is open to non-members but remains free of charge. The topic for the open meeting will be "The European Mergers Tax Directive: a new landscape for crossborder mergers and acquisitions?". A drinks reception will be held at Bishops Square immediately after the meeting. This special meeting has been organised by some of the younger members of the British Branch as part of a wider initiative to introduce the British Branch of the International Fiscal Association to potential new members. The British Branch is particularly keen to attract more new members from amongst the ranks of less senior tax practitioners both in professional firms and in the financial and corporate sectors. Individual membership only costs 75.00 per annum. As this special meeting is open to non-members as well as members, special registration procedures will apply. If you wish to attend, would you please complete the enclosed registration form and send it to Karen Spring, whose email address is  HYPERLINK mailto:karenspring@ifa-uk.org karenspring@ifa-uk.org. Please note that as places are limited in number they will be allocated on a first-come, firstserved basis. Early registration is, therefore, recommended. If you register but then find that you are not able to attend, do please notify Karen Spring so that your place can be reallocated.
