Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 23 March 2018 to Question 133080, what progress has been made on enabling the return of duty free sales to passengers travelling to the EU from the UK after the transition period.
The issues around duty free are complex, with a range of possible approaches. The government is clear that tax is a sovereign matter and that it will be open to the UK government and Parliament to decide to change its policy in the future, subject to any negotiations with the EU.
