It will permit two or more people to combine to carry on business in partnership but will give them the benefit, which normal partner- ship does not, of limiting their liability to creditors. The limited lia- bility partnership will be a separate entity from its partners and will have to be registered with the Registrar of Companies. At the time of writing, detailed regulations governing them are still being drafted, but the government has announced that they will be treated for tax purposes like conventional partnerships. |
