Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what plans he has to reinstate duty free sales for passengers leaving the UK for the EU after the UK leaves the EU.

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.
