The following should work:

  (defun matt-org-export-filter-timestamp-function (timestamp backend info)
    "removes relevant brackets from a timestamp"
    (when (org-export-derived-backend-p backend 'html)
      (replace-regexp-in-string "&[lg]t;\\|[][]" "" timestamp)))

  (add-to-list 'org-export-filter-timestamp-functions
               'matt-org-export-filter-timestamp-function)

Regards,
