Proceeding contribution from Lord Darling of Roulanish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 July 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Transport Innovation Fund.
Transport Innovation Fund
The hon. Gentleman knows that I am well aware of the fuel prices in the western isles, as I have paid those high prices on many occasions. He is right, to the extent that road pricing would depend on distance travelled and on a given road’s level of congestion. Various prices were modelled in the feasibility study that we published last July, but a lot of work remains to be done. If any national system were established, it would be UK wide. Scottish local authorities’ participation in the piloting process would depend on whether they wanted to take part, and on their willingness to work with the Scottish Executive.
