Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what discussions she has had with Cabinet colleagues on the potential impact of an overnight visitor levy on communities in East Sussex.

Local leaders will decide whether a levy is the right choice for their area and, if so, how revenue should be invested to make their regions better for people to visit and enjoy. This will inform their decisions and help them to find an appropriate balance between supporting local economic priorities, ensuring a levy is affordable, including for families, and providing stability and certainty for businesses. The impact of any local levy will depend on local circumstances and decisions.
