You don't pay the full cost of the 'benefit'. The actual cost is added
to your salary and that is taxed in the normal way.


There is limited exenmption, which is probably what i was thinking of:

It does appear to have been amended. I never needed a taxi home from my
regular place of work because I drove there. But on occasions was required
to work at one of my employer's other premises where public transport was
more convenient. And got taxed on this 'benefit' several times. Despite
having paid for the return fare by PT. But it didn't apply to MPs visiting
the same premises.
