Mel Stride
Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer
To ask the Chancellor of the exchequer, why the statistics publication entitled Minor tax expenditures and structural reliefs on GOV.UK has not been updated since December 2024.
Dan Tomlinson
The Exchequer Secretary
Estimates of the exchequer cost of Minor tax expenditures and structural reliefs were updated in January 2026 and are now contained in a new Tax Relief Statistics publication which combines the previous Minor tax expenditures and structural reliefs publication with the related Non-structural tax relief statistics publication, and can be found here:

The change was made following feedback from stakeholders and aims to improve clarity and accessibility.

The chancellor of the exchequer is the government's chief financial minister and as such is responsible for raising government revenue through taxation or borrowing and for controlling overall government spending.
The chancellor's plans for the economy are delivered to the House of Commons every year in the Budget speech.
The chancellor is the most senior figure at the Treasury, even though the prime minister holds an additional title of 'First Lord of the Treasury'. He normally resides at Number 11 Downing Street.
