Anna Turley – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Anna Turley on 2016-10-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, on what date his Department plans to open a consultation on biofuels; and if he will take steps to ensure that that consultation addresses indirect land use change and the level of the crop cap.

Mr John Hayes

We plan to consult later this year on changes to the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation including steps to provide more long term confidence for producers and to address indirect land use change with options to limit the contribution from crop based biofuels.
