Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the Government has made an assessment of the potential merits of introducing a small distillers duty relief to help small spirits producers grow their businesses.
The Government held a call for evidence in 2020 on reforms to alcohol duty, which closed on 29 November. The Government is now analysing the responses, and will provide updates in due course. The Government is considering the role of small producer reliefs as part of this review.
