Mr Richard Holden

Conservative — Basildon and Billericay

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 October 2024

Debate

Pub and Hospitality Sector

Contribution

My hon. Friend is making a fantastic speech, covering all aspects of the hospitality sector. An extra benefit of draught beer relief is that 97% of the input into draught beer is made in the UK. That has a big knock-on effect across our agricultural sector. It is a win-win for UK farmers, the UK Exchequer and the hospitality sector. I urge him to continue to press the Government to push for greater relief in that space.
