The “taper relief” tax rates on gifts made seven years before someone dies, which increase to 32 per cent if gifts are given three years before the day the person dies, could also be partly replaced with a lifetime cap on the amount of cash or assets individuals can donate, according to a source quoted by The Guardian.
