The outgoing CEO of telecoms and broadband giant BT<\/a> Group, Philip Jansen, has this afternoon called on the Chancellor of the UK government, Jeremy Hunt, to use his forthcoming Spending Review to help support investment in the roll-out of full fibre (FTTP<\/a>) broadband by making \u201cFull Expensing<\/em>\u201d a permanent change.<\/p>\n

Just to recap. BT<\/a> and other network operators were, until recently, able to take advantage of the temporary \u201cSuper Deduction<\/em>\u201d introduced by the government (i.e. giving a 25% tax break to businesses that invested in new plant and machinery assets). The operator previously claimed that this measure is part of what enabled Openreach<\/a> to raise their Fibre-to-the-Premises<\/strong> (FTTP<\/a>) roll-out plan from 20 million to 25m premises (growing competition and softer regulation from Ofcom<\/a> are other factors).<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Openreach<\/a>’s full fibre network currently covers 12 million premises and, at a cost of up to \u00a315bn, they aim to reach 25m by December 2026. After that there’s also an aspiration that could see them push toward 30m by 2030.<\/div>\n

The good news is that, while the Super Deduction did come to an end this year, the Chancellor’s 2023 Spring UK Budget managed to mitigate the impact of that somewhat by announcing a new policy of \u201cFull Expensing<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\u201d (the first European country to do so). This essentially offers 100% first-year relief to companies on qualifying new main rate plant and machinery investments from 1st April 2023 until 31st March 2026 (i.e. for every \u00a31 invested in IT equipment, plant or machinery, their taxes are cut by up to 25p).<\/p>\n

At the time the Chancellor suggested that the government would aim to make this a permanent change, which would help to avoid the potential risk of a \u201ccliff edge<\/em>\u201d scenario for those harnessing the new measure. But so far there’s been no confirmation of that happening, hence Philip Jansen’s latest remarks.<\/p>\n

Philip Jansen, BT<\/a> Group CEO, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The BT Board, in deciding to make enormous long-term commitments on full fibre worth some \u00a315bn, had to do so in the knowledge that the investment would all be made up front with the returns some way off. The nature of our business is that most of our investments take at least five years to generate a return; but in the case of fibre that period will stretch to at least a decade.<\/p>\n

We took that tough decision to commit to fibre, nonetheless, in part because policymakers and regulators understood this point and acted on it. That\u2019s where decisions on tax have been so important.<\/p>\n

…<\/p>\n

Full expensing was also critical: it allowed us to accelerate our capital investment by some \u00a3300m per year, to stick to the 25m target and to simultaneously increase the pace at which we were connecting new customers to the new fibre network (itself a capital-intensive process).<\/p>\n

I think politicians on all sides have now understood the important role that tax incentives can play in promoting investment. In our industry, the results are very clear from the record-breaking pace at which Openreach<\/a> is now rolling out the new network.<\/p>\n

However, like the super deduction before it, full expensing is only a short-term intervention. It is due to expire in two and a half years. The investment demands and needs of the industry and the country won\u2019t stop there, though. There is a \u00a320bn investment gap to close, for example, if government ambitions for 5G<\/a> mobile services are to be met, and an ever-increasing need to make our networks more energy efficient, secure and resilient against future risks and threats.<\/p>\n

The real game-changer would be to put these tax incentives on a permanent basis. That would give businesses like BT Group genuine long-term certainty to plan and shift the investment environment in Britain from good to great.<\/p>\n

I know the Chancellor is considering this as one option for next week\u2019s Autumn statement. He has said he would like to take this step when the economic conditions allow. With billions of pounds of potential investment at stake, it\u2019s also important to ask whether, as a country, we can afford not to.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Admittedly, one catch here for smaller network builders (e.g. AltNets) is that most of them will already be running at a loss due to the high cost of network build (as BT says, reaching payback is often a 10-15 year slog). As such, Full Expensing may not benefit them as much as it might benefit more immediately profitable network operators and ISPs. But over the long term we\u2019d hope that everybody can benefit, assuming the government opts to make it permanent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
