Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what information her Department holds on usage of the Lifetime ISA by region; and if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of the Lifetime ISA price cap on prospective first-time buyers in each region.

At the request of the Treasury Select Committee, HMRC recently released regional data on the Lifetime ISA.

HMRC Letter to Treasury Select Committee

Data from the latest UK House Price Index shows that while the average price paid by first-time buyers has increased, it is still below the LISA property price cap in all regions of the UK except for London, where the average price paid is affected by boroughs with very high property values.

The Government keeps all aspects of savings tax policy under review.
