"Finance Minister Simon Harris is expected to introduce excise duty cuts at the petrol pumps from tomorrow that will last longer and be potentially deeper than previously signalled."
"Such cuts to the tax on petrol and diesel would originally have ended next month, but Mr Harris now believes he has found the fiscal space to push out the review date to May."
Finance Minister Simon Harris is set to announce excise duty cuts on petrol and diesel, extending the relief period until May. Originally, these cuts were scheduled to end next month. The anticipated changes aim to provide consumers with additional financial relief at the pumps. Alongside this, a rebate scheme for hauliers and a Double Fuel Allowance payment are also expected to support the most vulnerable populations.
