Per plane levy decision deferred in emergency budget

Monday, 22 Jun, 2010 0

Chancellor George Osborne postponed a decision on scrapping APD and replacing it with a per plane levy until the autumn in today’s emergency budget.

The proposals for the new tax has had a mixed reaction from the industry, with some operators welcoming the move while others showing caution.

It was widely expected that Osborne would introduce the levy today but even if he does bring it in autumn, its complexities will mean it won’t be implemented until next year.
