The NHS and in particular Nurses have joined the number of organisations pressurising the Government for an increase in AMAP mileage rates for those who drive their own cars on company business.
In this month’s Royal College of Nursing’s in-house magazine there is a printed letter that has been sent to Chancellor Alastair Darling. It asking for an increase in mileage rates for community nurses, to help them offset the rising fuel costs as they are now actually subsidising the NHS.
At present nurses currently operate under NHS guidelines which advice payments of 33.5p a mile for the first 9000 miles and 18.3p a mile thereafter.
However, HMRC’s approved mileage allowance payments allow for 40 pence per mile, tax free, to be claimed for the first 10,000 miles and 25p a mile thereafter.
