§ Mr. Andrew MitchellMy right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Transport is considering options for changes to the law relating to disabled vehicle excise duty exemptions to be introduced within the November budget. We are assured that, in the meantime, no disabled person will lose entitlement to free vehicle excise duty, even if they are affected by the disability living allowance changes.
