HC Deb 18 December 1919 vol 123 c711W
Lieut.-Colonel CAMPION

asked the Minister of Transport what arrangements are made to earmark the proceeds from the Petrol Duty towards the upkeep of roads, and particularly those roads that are constantly used by motor omnibuses?

Mr. BALDWIN

Under the provisions of the Finance (No. 2) Act, 1915, this duty ceased to be earmarked to the Road Improvement Fund. The course to be proposed for the future is being examined, and will be further considered on receipt of the Report from a Departmental Committee of the Ministry of Transport which is now sitting.

Forward to
