HC Deb 02 July 1959 vol 608 c58W
Sir A. Bossom

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will consider allowing farm-goods-carrying vehicles, as well as tractors, which are used on and near farms, to run on duty-free diesel oil.

Mr. Erroll

In so far as such vehicles are not licensed for use on public roads or are exempt from licence duty under Section 7 (4) of the Vehicles (Excise) Act, 1949, their entitlement to use duty-free heavy oil is already provided for in Clause 6 (2) of this year's Finance Bill.
