Written Answers |

Blood: Contamination
Asked by: Leigh Ingham (Labour - Stafford) Tuesday 4th February 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of ensuring that compensation payments for victims of the infected blood scandal are not subject to Inheritance Tax in circumstances where payments are transferred to a deceased victim’s next of kin and then passed on again to the next of kin's benefactors in a will. Answered by James Murray - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) Infected Blood compensation payments are relieved from inheritance tax under Schedule 15 of the Finance Act 2020. This is applied to the estate of the recipient of the compensation payment. Where these payments are subsequently inherited, they become part of the beneficiary’s estate and are subject to standard inheritance tax rules, in line with normal practice for compensation schemes. This ensures victims receive full compensation without tax burdens whilst maintaining fairness in the tax system and protecting the public finances. |
Private Education: Business Rates
Asked by: David Simmonds (Conservative - Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner) Friday 24th January 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 12 December 2024 to Question 17827 on Private Education: Business Rates, what estimate she has made of the number of independent schools which receive discretionary business rate relief from their local authority to top up the 80% mandatory charitable rate relief; and if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of the removal of mandatory charitable relief on funding by local authorities of discretionary rate relief for independent schools. Answered by James Murray - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) Under the existing discretionary relief powers provided by the Local Government Finance Act 1988 local authorities are permitted to award relief of any level to any ratepayers, where they feel it reasonable to do so and it is in the interest of local council taxpayers. Existing discretionary relief powers are provided by the Local Government Finance Act 1988 and will be unaffected by the ending of charitable rate relief for private schools Central Government does not collect data on specific recipients of discretionary relief. |
Orchestras: Tax Allowances
Asked by: Rachel Blake (Labour (Co-op) - Cities of London and Westminster) Thursday 16th January 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of changes to Orchestra Tax Relief from 1 April 2024 on the promotion of UK orchestras. Answered by James Murray - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) The government recognises the value of the UK’s world-leading creative industries and arts sectors.
On 1 April 2024, several administrative changes to Orchestra Tax Relief took effect, following legislation being passed in Finance Act 2024.
In accordance with standard practice, HMRC published a tax information and impact note about the legislation, which can be accessed at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/creative-industry-tax-reliefs-administrative-changes/administrative-changes-to-the-creative-industry-tax-reliefs
As set out in the note, the administrative changes are expected to have a negligible impact on businesses claiming the creative tax reliefs.

Pensions: Fraud
Asked by: James McMurdock (Reform UK - South Basildon and East Thurrock) Wednesday 15th January 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many individuals suspected of being victims of pension fraud have been investigated for tax penalties by HMRC in the last 12 months. Answered by James Murray - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) Registered pension schemes in the UK benefit from generous tax reliefs, estimated to be £70.6 billion in 2022-23. HMRC’s role is to administer these reliefs as well as undertake compliance checks to ensure that taxpayers are paying the correct amount of tax at the right time. HMRC charges penalties to encourage compliance with tax obligations and does not open investigations with a view to charging penalties. Where inaccuracies are identified as part of a compliance check, penalties may be charged under Schedule 24 of Finance Act 2007.
HMRC does not hold the data requested, HMRC consider the correct response for each taxpayer’s case based on the unique set of facts they present. |
Housing: Pylons
Asked by: Kevin Hollinrake (Conservative - Thirsk and Malton) Wednesday 15th January 2025 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what guidance her Department issues on whether the erection of an electricity pylon close to a dwelling is a material consideration in relation to the current valuation and council tax dwelling of a property. Answered by Jim McMahon - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government) The erection of a new electricity pylon close to a dwelling (property) will give the owner or occupier the right to submit a proposal (formal challenge) to alter the Council Tax list. The proposal can be made if they believe there has been a “material reduction” in the value of the dwelling due to “any change in the physical state of the dwelling’s locality”. Material reduction is defined in section 87 part 10 of the Local Government Finance Act 1992. Forms and guidance for making a proposal can be found on gov.uk here. |
