The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what plans she has to replace fuel duty.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson

Fuel duty is projected to raise £24.4bn in 2025/26 and will continue to remain in place. At Autumn Budget 2024, the Government announced continued support for people and businesses by extending the temporary 5p fuel duty cut and cancelling the planned increase in line with inflation for 2025/26.
