“Could you please advise me what the current fixed and per mile elements of Road Equivalent Tariff (RET) for passengers and vehicles on ferries are?”

I enclose a copy of all of the information you requested.

The answer to your question is the current RET formula is for passengers a £2 fixed element plus £0.13 per mile, and for cars a £5 fixed element plus £0.80 per mile. This formula was applied in 2013 and inflationary increases have been applied since then.
