BWAF Licence Meeting - another survey

THIS IS URGENT - NABO is on a BWAF panel to discuss future licensing and, between now and the meeting on Monday 12th May, wants to give its members and other boaters a chance to answer the two questions posed by APCO in its petition/survey regarding 'Continual Cruisers' and wide beam craft. Just three clicks are needed on this very short web form please.

Red Diesel Latest Meeting

At a meeting with HMRC we learnt that they are looking for a fixed percentage of propulsion to domestic usage to apply to all red diesel sold at inland waterway pumps from November. Buyers will sign a declaration to buy diesel at this reduced duty, once for each purchase or maybe only once a year if they stick to one supplier. This rate is to be determined by further consultation and a special case claim system is being investigated for residential users.

NABO is giving customers a chance to rate BW's new standards.
