HELP FOR THOSE AFFECTED BY HIGHER OIL PRICES

That this House notes the significant difficulties and hardship caused to many households across the United Kingdom over the past 12 months due to the spiralling costs of fuel, food and other essential items; and calls upon the Government to review the significant increase in revenue obtained through the escalation in crude oil prices during that same time, and introduce fiscal measures using the increased revenue to assist those families and individuals on medium and lower incomes as a matter of urgency.
