## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, which comes into force on 6th December 2005, amends the Excise Duties (Surcharges or Rebates) (Hydrocarbon Oils etc.) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/1978) (“the Principal Order”). The effect is to increase, by 1.22 pence per litre, the amount payable in respect of excise duty on most rebated hydrocarbon oils.
The Principal Order adjusts the liabilities to excise duty (and, where applicable, the rights to rebate in respect of such duty) in respect of liquid fuels that are chargeable by virtue of the Hydrocarbon Oil Duties Act 1979 (c. 5). Those adjustments negate, temporarily, the effect of section 5 of the Finance Act 2005 (c. 7) in relation to those fuels. The adjustments made by the Principal Order are all in the form of a deduction from the amount payable (or an addition to the amount of rebate allowable) of a specified percentage not exceeding 10 per cent. This instrument removes those parts of the Principal Order that provided for adjustments to the amounts of rebate allowable. Thus, the amounts actually payable in respect of the rebated hydrocarbon oils are now increased back to the levels that are provided for by section 5 of the Finance Act 2005.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument, as it has no impact on the costs of business, charities or voluntary bodies.
