Yes they do, I used to get a rebate annually now I get a large bill every Christmas expecting it to be paid by the 6th of January despite being PAYE.

PAYE doesn't operate here, it is ITIP.  The difference is that PAYE adjusts through the year so for most people, at the end, there  is nothing due either way.  Most ordinary employed people in the UK do not need to submit a tax return each year, unless they have other income or allowable expenses not covered through the payroll.   

ITIP is an instalment plan based on your last return and is adjusted when you submit your return with a payment due either way.

The adjustment is only in one direction these days.

It's a needlessly complicated way of achieving something that's very simple.

As any number of posts on this thread demonstrate it blurs understanding - you'd almost swear it was deliberate.

You only need to look at the government's response to the second job thing to see that. They may as well have titled it "how to turn understanding into misunderstanding in pictures." 

NI is even worse, an even simpler concept shrouded in mystery and complication. I'm 100% convinced they really don't want people knowing how that one works.

Fancy asking the miserable bastards here what it's like. They should have asked actual tourists about their experience.

Of course. It's the government.

I suggest you read what you have written and consider why someone would not understand what you are saying. Its like gobbledegook.

Do you know for absolute fact what the reason for that closure is?

Yes. Menu prices were raised 20% to factor for the uplift in minimum wage. Instead of a 20% increase in revenue a 10% decrease. Simple input / output equation.

Which part don't you understand?

The more prices are hiked the less footfall there will be and if VAT was lowered the customers would not benefit so footfall would not increase and the Government would lose money on the VAT that is needed for Health, Education etc.   and as the survey above claims there is poor value for food on the Island so hospitality need to up their game not look for handouts.   The well run eateries will survive.
