Agriculture and Business: Inheritance Tax
Asked by: Dave Doogan (Scottish National Party - Angus and Perthshire Glens) Tuesday 25th February 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what definition of family farm was used when developing changes to inheritance tax relief for (a) business and (b) agricultural assets. Answered by James Murray - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) The Government believes its reforms to agricultural property relief and business property relief from 6 April 2026 get the balance right between supporting farms and fixing the public finances in a fair way. The reforms reduce the inheritance tax advantages available to owners of agricultural and business assets, but still mean those assets will be taxed at a much lower effective rate than most other assets. Despite a tough fiscal context, the Government will maintain very significant levels of relief from inheritance tax beyond what is available to others and compared to the position before 1992.
The Government’s assessment relates to claims for agricultural property relief and business property relief. The qualifying conditions for these reliefs are set out in Part 5 of the Inheritance Tax Act 1984.
Guidance on agricultural property relief is available at www.gov.uk/guidance/agricultural-relief-on-inheritance-tax and www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm24000.
Guidance on business property relief is available at www.gov.uk/business-relief-inheritance-tax and www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm25000.

Electric Cables: Costs
Asked by: Dave Doogan (Scottish National Party - Angus and Perthshire Glens) Tuesday 25th February 2025 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether Ofgem have made an estimate of the relative costs per KM of installing (a) overhead, (b) underground and (c) offshore electricity transmission cables for energy transmission infrastructure. Answered by Michael Shanks - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) Ofgem estimates of the relative costs of overhead, underground and offshore electricity transmission cables vary significantly depending on various factors such as technology types, voltage levels and locations. Due to commercial sensitivity, Ofgem cannot not share specific estimates. However, as set out in the Institution of Engineering and Technology’s 2012 study, offshore cables have considerable cost and technical challenges and can have substantial impacts on the marine environment. Undergrounding is usually by open trenching with costs between 5-10 times those of overhead lines. |
