The Road Haulage Association fully supports the move by Robert Halfon, Tory MP for Harlow, as he prepares to table a Private Members Bill to make fuel pricing more transparent.

"This initiative will serve as a real wake up call to all users of road fuels; petrol or diesel", said RHA spokesperson Kate Gibbs.

"This is a move that could benefit the economy in general and the road haulage sector in particular as customers will see that they are getting the best possible rate for the job.

"The price of fuel has become a wide reaching political issue; it affects everyone. If this move for transparency goes ahead, fuel pricing has the potential to become a real vote winner, or indeed vote loser".
