The amendment would require the Secretary of State to publish an annual report on the total volume supported, the proportion truly consistent with UK production and any fuel that is exported. We believe that this reporting mechanism would be helpful. It would help to assess which airlines are leading and which are lagging in using SAF to cut their emissions. It would also help us to understand the type of sustainable fuels being used and to break that down into SAF and eSAF. This duty is fairly modest, but we believe it would help domestic production here. It would help to ensure that this revenue certainty mechanism is building UK production and helping to do what the Bill sets out to do, which is to get this big initial investment in place so that these big factories can be set up to support jobs and growth in this country, so the amendment is fairly straightforward.
