UK's 2008/09 tax increases
Mr Darling risked the anger of environmental groups by delaying a planned increase in fuel duty for six months - but motorists will face an April 2009 fuel duty rise of 1.84p a litre.,
Plans to increase first-year road tax by $1,900 for the most polluting vehicles - and a general reform of Vehicle Excise Duty aimed at encouraging the production of greener cars - are also expected to bring in an extra £730m Tax annually by 2010.
From 2009, unless companies make changes, Mr Darling said legislation would come into effect that could reduce the number of plastic bags in circulation by around 12 billion.
