SMMTchief executive, Paul Everitt, will discuss how the scheme has given the automotive industry a much needed boost and highlight the environmental and safety benefits of new vehicles. To counter the likely negative impacts of a return to the higher rate of VAT and the introduction of the first year VED rates, SMMTrecently called on government to extend the scrappage scheme through to the original close date of the end of February 2010.
Robert Baker, SMMTchief economist, will offer his views on the economic outlook and how the scrappage scheme could continue to have a positive impact on the UK market over the remainder of 2009 and next year. Robert will also discuss economic trends and provide an outlook of the UK automotive sector in 2010.
