HC Deb 18 November 2003 vol 413 c729W
13. Mr. Wiggin

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what steps he is taking towards the introduction of(a) bioethanol and (b) biodiesel fuels for road users. [138867]

Mr. Jamieson

The Government introduced a 20pence per litre fuel duty incentive for biodiesel in July 2002, which has already resulted in a big increase in biodiesel sales. A similar duty incentive for bioethanol is due to come into effect in January 2005.
