Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme White Paper Released
This is an extract taken from the Government white paper on Carbon reduction. – LPG, LNG and CNG are substitutes for petrol and diesel and lie outside the fuel tax system. To ensure that the CPRS tax arrangements maintain neutrality between these fuels and petrol and diesel the Government will provide a CPRS fuel credit to LPG for three years and to CNG and LNG, which are predominantly used by heavy vehicle road users, for one year. The credit will vary between fuels and will be less than the fuel tax cuts because these fuels have substantially lower carbon emissions than petrol or diesel. The Government will review these measures at the time that each measure is due to cease. Final costs will be published in the 2009-10 Budget.
