Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : For non-doms, only income and capital gains generated in the UK - or funds sent back to the UK - would attract tax.

41% : One former HMRC tax inspector, who reviewed the structure for the Guardian, said: "In practice, I cannot see that the use of the BVI company by two UK residents could be anything other than tax motivated."
