Stamp Duty (EDM1594)

Stamp Duty

EDM number 1594 in 2003-04, proposed by Paul Flynn on 07/09/2004.

That this House supports the campaign to Raise the Roof on stamp duty by increasing the tax threshold from Ãº60,000 to Ãº150,000; notes that the percentage of first time buyers exempt from stamp duty has fallen from 70 per cent, to 24 per cent, in the past 10 years; and agrees with the West Bromwich Building Society and Mortgage Watchdog's chief Monty Burn that recent house inflation justifies the removal of this penalty in order to provide relief to people on low incomes.

This motion has been signed by a total of 44 MPs.
