Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when the Government plans to publish its response to the consultation on the proposed changes to the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation Order.

We plan to publish the Government’s response later this year. We recognise the need to provide the UK biofuel industry with certainty if it is to realise the industrial opportunities highlighted in the consultation. It is therefore our intention to implement changes to the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation as soon as possible.
