Proceeding contribution from Norman Baker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 March 2010. It occurred during Estimates day on Road Users (Taxes and Charges).
Road Users (Taxes and Charges)
I am interested in that observation. There is indeed some support for road pricing in Holland—hon. Members might find that surprising—but given the large charge on vehicles at purchase, one would expect motorists to oppose road pricing because they have already purchased their cars. Support for road pricing might be even higher therefore in those countries where there is no such purchase tax.
