Thank you for your request.

Unfortunately, ONS do not hold information showing the fuel data you have requested. 

We publish the total UK fuel duty receipts in our monthly public sector finance publication. The time series is accessible via the following link: CG: Current receipts: Taxes on production: Fuel duty: £m CPNSA
