Government continues to be sensitive to haulage costs

10 Apr Government continues to be sensitive to haulage costs

The recent budget once again saw the chancellor backing away from previous announced increases in fuel duty. Not for the first time, the treasury has observed that adding above inflation tax increases in fuel is likely to hurt both the UK consumer and business.

A recent survey showed that fuel consumption in the UK has fallen quite considerably since 2008, as increased costs have resulted in decreased use and therefore a negative impact on the economy.
