OUR edition of CM (May 9) er the heading Cheers All nd as Dery Tax Falls (p3) you )rted a speech in the House ommons by Dale Campbellours MP in which he referred Ie practice of fitting 500on supplementary tanks to r vehicles by some British liers travelling overseas and possibility that these tanks Id he used to import into the
UK dery purchased at cheaper prices abroad.
Your readers should be aware that only the fuel in the normal fuel tank of a vehicle is admitted without payment of duty. Fuel in supplementary tanks must be declared to Customs on import and will be charged with UK excise duty at the current rate.
Failure to declare the fuel in such tanks is an offence.
