HC Deb 18 December 2002 vol 396 cc818-9W
Mr. Hurst

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what further proposals he has to increase the tax incentives to motorists for mileage on business use to change to less polluting vehicles. [87325]

The new company car tax system linking the charge on the benefit of a company car to the level of its carbon dioxide emissions came into effect in April this year.

The Inland Revenue is undertaking an extensive exercise to evaluate the effects of the reforms.

Any changes to the system will be made in the context of the Chancellor's Budget judgment.
