Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the contribution of the Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury of 9 November 2020, Official Report, column 708, what assessment he has made of the financial effect on brewers producing between 2100 and 5000 hectolitres of changes to Small Brewers Relief.

Further information will be published alongside the technical consultation later this year.

The Government listened to a wide range of brewers prior to the Chancellor’s 2018 announcement, including those represented by the Society of Independent Brewers (SIBA), the Small Brewers Duty Reform Coalition (SBDRC) and the British Beer and Pub Association (BBPA).
