Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

THE MOST SENIOR official in the biggest road transport union has warned that more hauliers will go bust unless the government offers an essential user rebate on diesel tax.

Ron Webb, Unite's national secretary for road transport, made his comments after meeting with leaders of Transaction, the movement campaigning against the high price of fuel.

"Not only will small companies go bust, but larger companies are informing us across the bargaining table that unless they see a change soon it will mean lower wages for employees."
