PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
AIR PASSENGER DUTY FOR CHILDREN (3 November 2014)

Motion Details

That this House believes that the UK's air passenger duty is acting as a barrier to allowing hardworking families to take holidays abroad, when the majority already have to pay a premium due to school term-time restrictions; and calls on the Government to reduce the financial impact on hardworking families by scrapping the air passenger duty applicable to children.
