In recognition of the impact of record pump prices, clause 20 ensures that there will be no fuel duty increase this year, by deferring the 2011-12 inflation-only increase to 1 January 2012. That is in addition to the 1p per litre cut in fuel duty from 6 pm on Budget day that we debated in the Committee of the whole House.

We have had an extensive debate on clause 19.
