Duty Free Allowances: Airports
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of allowing duty free purchases to be made on landing in Great Britain.
Answered by James Murray
Current duty-free policy avoids large quantities of untaxed goods entering the UK market, while reducing operational burdens at the border and supporting wider health objectives.
The Government keeps all taxes under review as part of the policy making process.
