VAT And The Hospitality Sector

EDM number 594 in 2014-15, proposed by Gregory Campbell on 03/12/2014.
Categorised under the topics of Service industries and Taxation.

That this House notes the continuing problems faced by the hospitality sector across the UK; further notes the differential in VAT rates across Europe; and calls on the Government to recognise the beneficial effect of a VAT reduction in the hospitality sector, not just for business owners and customers, but to the wider economy as a whole as the nation seeks to move out of recession, and to implement such a reduction in advance of the 2015 tourist season.

This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
