Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Derek Conway (Conservative), on Wednesday, 25 February 2004, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 72 members in total.
LPG VEHICLES(2)
That this House recognises that models of cars powered by liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are among the cleanest commercially available running on British roads; notes that the fuel duty differential in favour of LPG was a major factor in persuading over 100,000 motorists to adopt this environmentally friendlier fuel; believes that putting up duty rate on LPG risks sending the wrong message to potential future users and to potential investors in cleaner alternative technologies; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to maintain a favourable fuel duty differential between LPG and other fuels so that the number of LPG vehicles can continue to grow towards its fullest potential.
