Stamp Duty in a Disadvantaged Area

Hi
We are thinking of putting an offer on a house i have been doing some research and seen if the purchase price is below £150k which it is ( we are offering £132k) we would could be exempt from stamp duty as the area is listed in a disadvantaged area which surprises me.
Does anybody know if this scheme is still active or has this been stopped now.
thanks

Still active as far as I am aware as we were also stamp duty exempt for this same reason on our house purchase this June
Just let your solicitor know and they will take care of the rest.0
