Visitor Levy: Boats
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether the overnight visitor levy will apply to canal boats which are rented out on a short-term basis.
Answered by Alison McGovern
We are empowering Mayors to introduce a visitor levy on short-term overnight accommodation, to drive economic growth in their region. including through support for the local visitor economy. Following the public consultation, decisions on the scope of the levy are still under consideration. The government will respond to the consultation in due course.
