Welsh Budget 2024-25

The Welsh draft Budget for 2024-25 was published on 19 December 2023. The Budget sets out the Welsh government’s revenue and capital spending proposals, including detailed portfolio spending plans.

There have been no changes announced to the Welsh rates of Income Tax (WRIT) which will continue to be set at 10p for 2024-25. This means that the rates of Income Tax paid by Welsh taxpayers will continue to be the same as those paid by English and Northern Irish taxpayers in the new tax year.

This draft Budget does not include any proposed changes to the current Land Transaction Tax (LTT) rates. Two consultations on the future of LTT will, however, be launched at a later date. The Welsh government has also confirmed that the Landfill Disposals Tax (LDT) rates will continue to mirror the UK landfill tax rates in 2024-25.

The RLHRR scheme will continue to be capped at £110,000 per business across Wales.
