Asked by David ChadwickLiberal DemocratTreasuryTabled Answered 5 September 2025UIN 71835

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether her Department has conducted an impact assessment of the potential impact of changes to inheritance tax relief for farmers on the Welsh language.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson

The Government is not under an obligation to carry out or publish a specific Welsh language impact assessment of tax policies. However, it is not expected there will be any material impact on the opportunities of individuals to use the Welsh language following these reforms.
