20:46 Penny Mordaunt (Portsmouth North) (Con)

21:09 Claire Perry (Devizes) (Con)

I echo the comments made by my hon. Friend the Member for Portsmouth North (Penny Mordaunt) about the importance of the first-year allowances for zero-emission goods vehicles—100% of first-year allowances will be deductible from April, continuing until April 2015. That demonstrates our Government’s commitment to supporting incredibly valuable legislation that helps us in the overall attempt to “green up” the British economy.
