Climate Change

Proceeding contribution from Mark Lazarowicz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 May 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Climate Change.
As we are discussing the effects of vehicle excise duty on people in rural areas, may I take the hon. Gentleman back to a question that I have raised about whether a city such as Inverness would fall within his definition of a remote area in which people would be entitled to a reduction in fuel duty? One of his colleagues has suggested that it would not, but another has said that it would. Does not that illustrate the difficulty of finding an excuse for a particular area being exempt from such measures if there are perceived electoral advantages involved?
