FUEL PRICE STABILISER (No. 2)
Early day motion 1252, tabled 11 January 2011 by Philip Davies (Conservative). Signed by 94 members.
That this House notes with concern that fuel duty has reached a record high in the UK, that the UK has the second highest diesel price in Europe, that the increase in fuel duty is bad for business during this time of recovery and that the increase in fuel duty is estimated to cost OECD countries 0.5 per cent. of their combined GDP; and calls on the Government to support the call from the Federation of Small Businesses to introduce a fuel duty stabiliser as a priority.
