By reducing cash ISA limits to push stocks and share ISA's, government will take more in tax than from traditional interest. 20k means multiple stamp duty payments of £100 if stocks are traded. If the government are serious about people investing to better their savings, scrap stamp duty in an ISA.

Abolish 0.5% Stamp Duty Reserve Tax on UK-Listed Equities
In order to promote more investment in UK industry by domestic & international investors the government should remove the current 0.5% Stamp Duty Investment Tax on UK listed Equities.
Abolish stamp duty for cohabiting couples who split & buy share of co-owned home
If a cohabiting couple split up & one party would like to buy the other out of the family home to remain & create stability for children etc then stamp duty is liable on any share of the house bought from the leaving party & the mortgage debt taken on. Married couples do not pay this tax.
Fund Stocks & Shares ISAs for every child, transitioning to pensions as they age
Create a fund for every child from birth, giving them £5,000 (inflation-linked) in a government-backed Stocks & Shares ISA, invested in low-risk diversified funds with parental and post-18 top-ups allowed, to transition into a personal pension as they age and help reduce state dependence in old age.
Keep Lifetime ISA for retirement savings & make a new ISA for first time buyers
I urge the Government to keep the current Lifetime ISA for retirement savings and reconsider scrapping or reforming it. We believe it is not a complicated product for those who use it to save for their future retirement and that first time buyers seem to be the ones having issues.
