HMRC has announced that farmers can use red diesel in their tractors to grit and to clear snow from public roads.
In a move similar to the one announced last Winter,( HMRC says Farmers can use Low Duty Red Diesel to Help Out Clearing Public Roads ), HMRC has said that during extreme weather, farmers will be able to use red diesel in agricultural tractors that are working on public roads to clear snow, or when gritting, so as to provide access to schools, hospitals, remote dwellings or communities cut off by ice or snow.
As before, they recommend that people intending to use red diesel in this way should contact the National Helpline for further information on 0845 010 9000.
