@3canary and for any on-road use, fuel excise is payable as the road user charge. Henry explains:pic.twitter.com/iVk1EGbaW1
@BernardKeane Applicable but always never paid. Road vehicles fueled from same source as the mine vehs. Treated like their tax liability!
@3canary I don't see how it's "never paid" - their fuel is taxed, they then have to claim a rebate for it.
