Sources close to the Treasury indicate that the upcoming Budget will see a second consecutive year of fuel duty being held in place.
This decision follows previous measures introduced in 2022 which were originally scheduled to expire after one year but have since been extended indefinitely.
In addition to the petrol and diesel tax freeze, officials are expected to remove import tariffs on a selection of food products.
The government estimates that households could save up to £21 annually when these new tariff removals are combined with existing suspensions launched in June.

Further reforms are planned for the carer's allowance system to address concerns about earnings limits.

Regarding minimum wage adjustments, reports suggest the rate for workers aged 18 to 20 may rise by 3.9% to approximately £11.27 an hour.

The latter stands at £12.71 an hour and has seen a substantial rise since the Labour administration returned to power in 2024.
A 5p discount on fuel duty is also confirmed to continue beyond its initial term.
While specific details on paternity pay remain under review, plans are reportedly underway to extend entitlement to two weeks of paid leave for fathers.
