Thanks for your questions
When RSUs vest their proceeds are paid out through your salary and taxed income tax and National Insurance whether above or below the capital gain threshold as they are not subjected to capital gains as part of the approved scheme arrangement with HMRC
The shares you purchase I imagine as under the capital gain rules as not part of the RSU arrangement these would be liable yo capital gains and if these were under the capital gain threshold then nothing to declare 9if over then anything over the threshold would be liable to capital gains rates
Thanks

Hi
Yes as the RSU and issues and vesting of shares (normally three years later ) are part of the approved employers share scheme
Yes with any other share purchases the conversion to sterling has to take place on the purchase date and sale date to establish the true gain You would need to speak with your employer about what to do if you dont sell the vested ones

Only your employer or the scheme administrator can tell you what sits within and out of the approved scheme - no tax expert can answer that for youthanks
No one else can help you only your share scheme provider as already advised as only they know what element of your purchases are within or out of the scheme - which I am sure you can appreciate
