A new tax declaration?

Article Abstract:

Accountants in the UK are worried that the US Financial Accounting Standards Board's Final Interpretation No 48 (FIN 48), which forces companies to reveal details of uncertainty in their tax bills could have a wide-ranging impact on British companies. However, many issues have come up, questioning if these fears are justified or if it is just a case of scare mongering aimed at attacking up further anti-US sentiment in the wake of Sarbanes-Oxley.
