1. DECC no longer produce these figures as they provide a misleading indication of fuel actually consumed in Scotland (using company reports that may not distinguish properly between Scotland and elsewhere in the UK.) There are concerns that inconsistency in companies' country-reporting, together with a change in the arrangements for the collection of the data, may have caused the discontinuity between 1999 and 2000
2. DECC believes these figures to be less reliable than petrol and diesel consumption figures in table 5.11, and recommend the use of the latter. This table will be therefore be removed from future editions.
3. Unleaded includes super unleaded
