The new simplified alcohol duty system, based on the principle of taxing alcohol by strength, will be implemented from 1 August 2023. We are introducing Draught Relief, reducing the duty on draught beer and cider by 5%, a measure not possible when we were members of the EU. This will directly support community pubs as over 75% of their sales come from beer and cider.</p> answering member constituency South Suffolk answering member printed James Cartlidge question first answered 16/01/2023 16:31:08 answering member 4519 label Biography information for James Cartlidge
