While taxation policy is primarily the responsibility of my colleague the Minister for Finance, I work closely with him to ensure that it is consistent with the Government's priorities for the agri-food and marine sector.

Two taxation measures, Stamp Duty Relief for Young Trained Farmers and Stock Relief, are due to expire on 31st December 2021. My Department has been consulted by the Department of Finance in the course of their review of these important measures in preparation for Budget 2022.
