Proceeding contribution from Angus Brendan MacNeil (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

The hon. Gentleman is making a sensible and cogent argument. Banding of any form will produce problems and anomalies. As he says, we are told that we cannot tax fuel, but does the answer not lie in finding some way to tax fuel and carbon emissions? We should describe the tax we need in those terms. The hon. Gentleman's suggestion of taxing per mile is eminently sensible.
