Fuel Scale Charges

Probably going to sound like a silly question, but I'm doing our VAT return and we have a number of cars where we calculate the fuel scale charges.
One of the girls has now turned her normal lease car in and got a short term hire car only for now.
Yesterday I found something about the fuel scale charges only being applicable to long term lease or owned cars and not on just a normal hire car, but I can't find any official legislation back about it.
Does anyone know anything about this and could you please point me in the right direction for the legislation?
Thanks,
Rinske

No idea. But your post was looking sad with no replies so I thought I'd at least acknowledge I'd thought about it0

Thanks!
The fuel scale charges seem to be the least of my worries on this VAT return. All I've done so far this week is working on this one VAT return....0 -
I would say that as the hire car is a direct replacement (and presumably will be hired until a new lease care is arranged) you should take the fuel scale charge on the hire car, also only claim 50% of the vat on the hire charges as she will be using it for personal use.0

I finally submitted and paid the VAT return today...
I did take the fuel scale charge on the hire car for the same reason, but no clue what happened to the VAT on the hire charges, as I didn't see the actual invoice, best go and check that, but if my memory serves me correct, we paid a deposit and only got the invoice in July.
Thanks!0
