HC Deb 11 December 1996 vol 287 c208W
Mr. Robert Banks

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will set out the level of airport passenger taxes, where appropriate, in each of the OECD member states. [7450]

Mr. Oppenheim

The information is not available in the form requested because the structure of air passenger taxes throughout OECD member states is very varied and complex. It includes embarkation taxes, departure charges, passenger service charges and air transport taxes as well as VAT-type taxes. They also vary, within a single state, according to factors such as airport of departure, place of destination, ticket price and weight of aircraft.
