Museums and Galleries: VAT
Asked by: Christopher Chope (Conservative - Christchurch) Monday 9th February 2026 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what the annual cost to the Exchequer is of the exemption from VAT on repairs enjoyed by museums and galleries. Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) HMRC does not hold data that specifically relates to the refunds of VAT on repairs enjoyed by museums and galleries. HMRC does not hold information on VAT revenue from specific products or services because businesses are not required to provide figures at a product level on their VAT returns, as this would impose an excessive administrative burden.

6 Feb 2026
Reviewing the electricity market Energy Security and Net Zero Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 27 Mar 2026) The Committee is inquiring into what reforms are needed to the UK electricity market to enable the transition to clean, lower cost energy by 2023. After long consultation, the Government indicated last year that it does not intend to undertake wholesale reform toward a model of locational pricing. But it has not set out its thinking or research on the range of possible individual reforms to the current system, that could break down some of the blocks and inefficiencies in the current market (see the Committee’s ongoing inquiry on the Cost of Energy for more work on those). Progressive vs wholesale reform The Committee is now inviting evidence on the range of possible reforms open to Government to implement and their impacts on reaching the UK’s twin goals of 95% clean energy generation by 2030 and bringing down energy bills. |
