Abstract
Analyses the role that taxes and benefits played in changes to the income distribution over the last 30 yearsThis is the second of two articles on changes to the UK income distribution over the last 30 years. It analyses the role that taxes and benefi ts played in changes to the income distribution over this period. The article considers the impact of both changes to the tax and benefit systems, and changes to the way in which those systems acted upon a changing population and income distribution. A companion article, The distribution of household income 1977 to 2006/07 (see References section), provides an analysis of changes to the income distribution. Both articles draw mainly on data published in the Office for National Statistics annual article The effects of taxes and benefits on household income which is also known as the Redistribution of Income (ROI) analysis.
