Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, on what date the beer market access review was published.

Answer

As set out in the answer of 8 June 2026 to Question 5064, the department continues to consider evidence on beer market access as part of a broader and ongoing process. Given the complexity of the issues involved, including the need to balance the interests of pub‑owning businesses, tenants and consumers, Ministers are carefully assessing the available evidence before setting out further conclusions.

Further updates will be provided in due course.
