Beer Taxation and Pubs

Proceeding contribution from Helen Whately (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 March 2019. It occurred during Backbench debate on Beer Taxation and Pubs.

I commend my hon. Friend on his speech. Pubs are very important in my constituency, where the brewery Shepherd Neame is the largest employer as well as the producer of excellent beer. I see colleagues nodding. Lower-alcohol beers are becoming increasingly popular, so does he agree that there may be a case for looking at the threshold at which brewers get duty relief for such beers?
