Fuels: Excise Duties
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what plans her Department has to review the future of the fuel duty freeze.
Answered by Dan Tomlinson
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. The temporary 5p cut is scheduled to expire in March 2026. The Government carefully considers the impact of fuel duty on households and businesses, with decisions on rates made at fiscal events.
