British Beer and Pub Association Responds to HMT Announcement

Please find below the British Beer and Pub Association's response to the HMT announcement regarding a temporary VAT discount for children's meals.

Emma McClarkin, CEO of the British Beer and Pub Association, said: "We want to keep a trip to the pub affordable, and this move will mean more families can gather together, enjoy a meal out, and support their local.

"When you help out business, you can help out the customer, which is why we urgently need VAT to be permanently lowered for all of our sector, all year round."
