Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if his Department will take steps to amend the legislation underpinning the Stamp Duty Reserve Tax so that newly-recognised growth markets are not required to be part of a recognised stock exchange.

There are currently no plans to extend the recognised growth market exemption from Stamp Duty Reserve Tax to markets that are not part of a recognised stock exchange.

However, the Government keeps all areas of the tax system under review.
