The original 0.6% stamp duty levy on pension fund assets will end this year while the additional 0.15% levy is legislated to apply for this year and 2015.

Preparations for Budget 2015 and the consequent Finance Bill are ongoing. It would not be appropriate for me to comment on what changes, if any, are being considered in the pension fund levy or any other tax measure.
