Motorists are being told to only buy fuel from reputable places
As the cost of living crisis continues to take its toll, a warning has been issued to motorists looking to fill up on petrol following a change in government policy. Kingdom Systems has told motorists who purchase diesel to only buy from reputable places such as a fuel station over fears thieves may be benefiting from recent changes to red diesel laws.
It was offered to certain sectors by the Government to support them and help stimulate their economies. But the number of companies, groups and organisations who are able to access red diesel has now been slashed to meet new environmental strategies. Only certain industries, from April 1, 2022, including agriculture and rail, are still permitted to use red diesel, as seen in the Leicester Mercury.
“We would urge all industries who have changed to diesel to be watching their tanks and supplies over the coming months to make sure thieves are not benefitting. It’s imperative to be monitoring over the coming months as watching stocks and supplies will be crucial. Thefts were not covered in a Government policy paper on the subject, which was published prior to the changes in November 2021.
