VAT On Domestic Fuel - Tax Avoidance

EDM number 561 in 1993-94, proposed by Jane Kennedy on 09/02/1994.

That this House deplores the imposition of VAT on domestic fuel and power; is appalled by the regressive nature of the tax which will hit those on lowest incomes hardest; and notes with concern that the legislation embodies the unjust principle of one law for the rich and one law for the poor as only higher income earners will be able to take advantage of the loophole which allows VAT to be avoided during the first year of its imposition by the advance payment of fuel bills as offered by MANWEB and other regional electricity companies.

This motion has been signed by a total of 97 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
