Inheritance Tax
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether Emma Reynolds MP has attended any Treasury meetings in her role as Economic Secretary to the Treasury on inheritance tax reforms on Agricultural Property Relief and Business Property Relief since 1 July 2024.
Answered by Dan Tomlinson
HM Treasury Ministers take part in internal and external meetings routinely on a range of subjects relating to the department’s responsibilities and their specific portfolios.
As the Minister responsible for the UK tax system, the Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury’s portfolio of responsibilities includes inheritance tax. My rt hon Friend the Secretary of State for Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs has not been the Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury. She was Parliamentary Secretary at HM Treasury and the Department of Work and Pensions from 9 July 2024 to 14 January 2025. She was Economic Secretary to the Treasury from 14 January 2025 to 5 September 2025.
