Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to Questions 169067, 169068 and 169069, on Excise Duties, tabled by the hon. Member for North West Durham, if he will provide the figures requested.
HMRC do not hold the information required to answer these questions and acquiring this information would be beyond the cost limit of answering each PQ. Statistics showing the impact of illustrative tax changes are set out in the Ready Reckoner. The HMRC publication “Direct effects of illustrative tax changes” shows the impact of a one per cent change on beer and cider duties.
