Renewable Transport Fuels Obligation
EDM number 1434 in 2005-06, proposed by Colin Challen on 20/01/2006.
That this House welcomes the Government's announcement that it will introduce a renewable transport fuels obligation (RTFO) to increase the use of biofuels and thereby reduce carbon emissions from the transport sector; urges the Government to give British biofuels producers sufficient investment and business certainty by moving quickly to implement the RTFO by spring 2007; and calls on the Government to introduce the RTFO alongside the existing duty of incentive for biofuels, rather than as a replacement.
This motion has been signed by a total of 83 MPs.
