	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/10/2016 answer text <p>There is no legislative framework for purchase receipts, which are simply an acknowledgment of payment. There is VAT legislation on when an invoice must be provided. This states that VAT-registered businesses are only obliged to provide invoices to other VAT-registered businesses. Expanding the information that must be provided on VAT invoices to cover other taxes and duties, or requiring invoices to be provided to private motorists as well as businesses, would increase administrative burdens for retailers. The Government therefore has no plans to implement this proposal.</p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 14/10/2016 09:30:55 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/10/2016 answer text <p>Fuel duty was frozen for its sixth successive year at Budget 2016, saving the average driver £75 every year compared to the pre-2010 fuel duty escalator plans. Like all taxes, the government keeps fuel duty under review, with all options considered and announcements made at fiscal events. Under the current legal framework there is no scope to apply a reduced rate of VAT to all fuels.</p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 10/10/2016 15:17:31 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison
