Proceeding contribution from Alan Reid (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 March 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on Fuel Prices and the Cost of Living.


Fuel Prices and the Cost of Living

The hon. Lady will recall that when she was a Treasury Minister, she received a delegation of highlands and islands Members of Parliament, including the Chief Secretary, and that we asked for a fuel duty derogation for remote rural areas. We had tea and sympathy, but no action. The Chief Secretary is now implementing that policy. Does the Labour party now support reduced fuel duty for the islands?
