Clause 7
Finance (No. 2) Bill
6:15 pm
Philip Dunne (Ludlow, Conservative)
I am most grateful, and I shall not detain the Committee by discussing with the hon. Gentleman the proportions of fuel that should be ordinary diesel and biodiesel. Biodiesel is being gradually introduced alongside regular diesel in Bishop’s Castle—I am reliably assured that once the tank has been topped up on a sufficient number of occasions it can be used at a 100 per cent. level without engine damage. Fuel efficiency is also improved, and by definition that reduces emissions.
