Givan calls for ‘dodgy fuel’ list
The DUP’s Mr Givan, chairman of the Assembly’s Justice Committee, has called on the Justice Minister to liaise with HMRC to ensure a better approach to improving public confidence.

“Fuel laundering is a plague on society and an issue the public is becoming increasingly impatient with. Tax revenue is being lost and cars are being damaged. The DUP continues to question what legislative basis blocks such fraudsters being published on a single list.
Both in the Assembly and at Westminster, DUP representatives will be seeking these answers.”
