Getting impatient with waiting for an update, I phoned Revenue and Customs today to see if there is any news on when veg oil duty would be removed. The adviser I spoke to told me that, far from removing the duty, it was going to be INCREASED from 48.35p a litre to 50.35p a litre! I expressed my incredulity (very politely) and was told to contact my MP since it was they that made the decision...
Have I got this confused? Have they? Or has the original poster (I assume not, obviously). Anyone else got a take on this? Any ideas on how to get a definitive statement?
