We believe all loyalty bonuses are tax-free and we are challenging HMRC's interpretation. However, while we make this challenge we are paying loyalty bonuses within the Vantage Fund & Share Account net of an amount equivalent to the basic rate tax. If we are successful in our challenge we will return this money to clients. If we are unsuccessful we will use the money to pay over any amounts due to HMRC.

This work is a comprehensive analysis of globalization that compares the first (roughly from the 1870s to World War I) and second (post–World War II) periods of globalization. Of particular concern to this topic, it discusses the stratifications—developed versus developing countries—as well as the changing role of developing countries in the global economy. The centre player is the player most responsible for defence, and this is normally their main focus. They are typically the defensive coordinator, as they can more accurately tell which opposing player has the ball due to being square to the opposing team. The normal width of court marking tape is 50mm. It can be any colour. The key thing is that it provides a good contrast to the playing surface to enable referees to be able to clearly distinguish the lines. Goalball UK advises to test the tape first on the playing surface you are planning to use to make sure it does not bring up the varnish or the marked lines that are already there. With experience players learn to tell where the ball is coming from and where it is going to and they have to respond by putting themselves between the ball and the goal they are defending.
