Conservative — Mid Buckinghamshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 October 2026

Debate

UK Coach Industry

Contribution

I want to raise an issue that I appreciate sits more with the Treasury than with the Department for Transport. Since fuel costs increased earlier this year, the Government have taken in over £1 billion in extra unexpected income to the Treasury from VAT on those higher fuel prices. The money is there to support the coach sector, the logistics sector and other sectors that so desperately need it, is it not?
