How this site works
One rules file per tax year holds every rate, threshold and allowance with the gov.uk page it came from and the date it was checked. The calculators and the rates pages read from the same file, so a figure cannot drift between them. The test suite runs HMRC's worked examples on every build, and the methodology lists them.
