Written Question
Quarrying: Costs
Tuesday 2nd December 2025

Asked by: John Lamont (Conservative - Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether she plans to review (a) tax and (b) energy cost burdens facing small quarrying businesses in rural constituencies.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury)

The government keeps all tax under review as part of the policy making process.

The government is bearing down on business energy prices more widely by reducing Great Britain’s reliance on volatile international gas prices, and through a new framework to scrutinise energy levies, ensuring they are affordable and value-for-money.

Written Question
Cultural Heritage: Stone
Tuesday 2nd December 2025

Asked by: John Lamont (Conservative - Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk)

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department is taking to support the continued availability of British natural stone for heritage restoration projects.

Answered by Chris McDonald - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)

The Department for Business and Trade does not offer any specific support for British natural stone for heritage restoration projects.

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport supports heritage restoration projects with several grant schemes, including those covering VAT for repairs through the Listed Places of Worship Grant Scheme and the Memorial Grant Scheme. Additional funds, such as the Heritage At Risk Capital Fund and the Heritage Revival Fund, provide financial support in England for repairing endangered heritage sites and repurposing neglected historic buildings for community and economic benefit.
