Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 December 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Expenditure.


Public Expenditure

My right hon. Friend the Chancellor will announce rates of fuel duty at future Budgets and pre-Budget reports in the normal way. We have seen very dramatic reductions in the price of fuel and the world price of oil over the past few months. It is vital that those reductions are passed on to customers such as the company in the hon. Gentleman’s constituency. The fact that we have seen such big reductions is helpful for companies in Wales.
