The government continues to keep all taxes under review and decisions on tax policy are made as part of the Budget process.

The government is committed to supporting the beer industry. The tax on a typical pint of beer was cut by a penny at March Budget 2015, building on the duty cuts at Budget 2014 and Budget 2013.
