Petition Details

Back date the stamp duty land tax change, announced on 8 July 2020, to the date the housing market reopened (13 May 2020)

Additional Information

On 13 May 2020 the housing market reopened and individuals were encouraged to proceed with transactions as a measure to reinvigorate the economy.

On 8 July 2020, the temporary stamp duty land tax change was made impacting all property transactions in the window 8 July 2020 - 31 March 2021.

The lockdown has impacted all, but none more so than those who heeded the advice on housing and completed in the window 13 May 2020 - 8 July 2020 (many under personal / financial pressures to complete).
