I go back to the original intention the Minister announced on budget day, which was that news periodicals would qualify for zero-rate VAT. A 9% rate of VAT will apply to those news periodicals. What is the distinction between a weekly online newspaper - because it must be deemed to be a newspaper - and a news periodical? How can I tell the difference between them? What are the distinguishing criteria between a news periodical that is online and a newspaper that is solely online? As there are no written criteria, how do we distinguish between them?
