To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps he is taking to restore the cider differential.
Damian Hinds
The Exchequer Secretary
The government recognises that small cider producers are a traditional part of rural economies and its support for small cider producers has helped create a diverse and vibrant market, improving consumer choice and creating jobs. To support the wider industry, at the March 2015 Budget the duty on lower strength cider was cut by 2 per cent.
