Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact of inheritance tax changes on the long-term sustainability of family farms in (a) South Basildon and East Thurrock constituency and (b) Essex.

I refer the Honourable Member to the PQ referenced 12250 published on 11^th November 2024 at: https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questions/detail/2024-11-01/12250.

The Chancellor also recently wrote to the Chair of the Treasury Select Committee on this issue, and her letter may be of interest: https://committees.parliament.uk/publications/45691/documents/226235/default/
