The Marriage Allowance was introduced in 2015-16 to recognise the importance of marriage in the tax system. Around 1.8m people have claimed the allowance to date.<\/p>

<\/p>

Our current best estimate assessment of the initial cost of this allowance is £140m in 2015-16, but this does not include the impact of any expected future claims, which can be backdated to this year. The total cost of this allowance is forecast to rise to £385m in 2015-16 once these claims are taken into account.<\/p>

<\/p>

An estimate of the initial cost of this allowance for 2016-17 will not be available until the end of the tax year. We forecast an eventual cost to the exchequer of £425m, once all backdated claims are taken into account.<\/p>

<\/p>

HM Treasury does not hold information relating to the income deciles of claimants or successful applicants of the Marriage Allowance. Previous analysis of the total eligible population has shown the majority of the benefits of this policy go to the bottom half of the income distribution. Only basic rate taxpayers and non-taxpayers will benefit.<\/p>

<\/p>

HM Treasury does not hold information about either how many individuals claiming Universal Credit are eligible for the Marriage Allowance, or how many are in receipt of it.<\/p>

Since its introduction in 1996, the Landfill Communities Fund (LCF) has contributed over £1.4 billion to community projects.<\/p>

<\/p>

The value for money provided by the LCF is assessed in the same manner as all other Government funding.<\/p>

<\/p>

Despite difficult decisions on spending, at Budget 2017 the Government decided to maintain the value of the LCF at £39.3 million for 2017-18. This means the cap on contributions from landfill operators has increased from 4.2% to 5.3%. The Government expects to maintain this 5.3% cap for future years, but this expectation assumes we see continued progress from environmental bodies in reducing administrative costs and the level of unspent funds.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3918", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jane Ellison"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Battersea"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jane Ellison"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-03-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-03-29T13:40:42.97Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "CaTreasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-03-21", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Landfill Communities Fund"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he made an assessment of the potential merits of increasing the diversion rate for the Landfill Communities Fund prior to the introduction of the Spring Budget 2017.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/298", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve McCabe"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Birmingham, Selly Oak"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Steve McCabe"} ], "uin" : "68646"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/712880", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "HM Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/712880/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Government published the discussion paper \u201cTax issues for late-life oil and gas assets\u201d on 20 March. This considers whether any changes to the oil and gas tax rules could facilitate the transfer of late life assets and support the Government\u2019s aim of Maximising Economic Recovery from the UK\u2019s oil and gas reserves.<\/p>

<\/p>

The discussion paper is available here:<\/p>

<\/p>

https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/tax-issues-for-late-life-oil-and-gas-assets<\/a><\/p>

<\/p>

The Government recognises the importance of engaging fully with individuals, practitioners, businesses and other organisations in considering developments in tax policy. We welcome responses from all interested parties to this document.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government will establish a panel of industry experts to consider the tax issues identified in the paper. It will consist of upstream oil and gas tax experts, tax practitioners and businesses with considerable experience of late-life oil and gas asset transactions.<\/p>

<\/p>

The terms of reference for the expert panel have been published alongside the discussion paper. The panel will be established shortly.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3918", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jane Ellison"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Battersea"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jane Ellison"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-03-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "68798"} , {"_value" : "68799"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-03-29T13:27:40.197Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "CaTreasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-03-21", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "North Sea Oil"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to paragraph 3.29 of Spring Budget 2017, if he will make it his policy to engage with non-industry representatives, including non-governmental organisations with expertise in environmental, energy and consumer rights issues when consulting on the formation of future North Sea oil and gas policy.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3930", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Caroline Lucas"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Brighton, Pavilion"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Caroline Lucas"} ], "uin" : "68797"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "next" : "http://eldaddp.azurewebsites.net/answeredquestions.text?_page=1&AnswerDate=2017-03-23", "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 223, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
