Proceeding contribution from Chris Huhne (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 April 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No 2) Bill.


Finance (No. 2) Bill

The hon. Gentleman should be aware, given that it has been mentioned in the House many times, that we back reform of air passenger duty, so that it is levied not per passenger but on the movement of each aircraft. That would provide the incentive to ensure that, when an aircraft takes off, it is full rather than half empty.
