The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether her Department plans to increase the Income Tax Personal Allowance.

At our first Budget, we decided not to extend the freeze - implemented by the previous Government - on the Personal Allowance. As a result, the Personal Allowance will rise with inflation from April 2028.
