Tellers for the Noes:


Mr. David Hanson and
Mr. Clive Betts.

Question accordingly negatived.

6 Jul 1999 : Column 912

Schedule 1

Rates of vehicle excise duty for goods vehicles etc

Ms Hewitt: I beg to move amendment No. 14, in page 97, line 29, column 4, leave out '2,320' and insert '2,230'.

I hope that this amendment will not cause anything like the controversy caused by the previous amendment. It amends schedule 1, which concerns vehicle excise duty for goods vehicles, and corrects a typographical error in the tabled rate for three-axle rigid goods vehicles weighing between 23 and 25 tonnes. The provision should have remained unchanged at 2,230 lbs rather than the 2,320 lbs set out in the schedule.

This corrective amendment reflects Government policy: rates for all goods vehicles, apart from the more heavily loaded vehicles that became available from 1 January, should be frozen, as they were last year. Lorries relicensed since the Budget have of course been charged at the correct rate. I trust that there will be no opposition to the amendment.

Amendment agreed to.
