"In addition, the Goods Vehicle taxation system was considerably simplified by the abolition of
separate goods vehicle classes for farmers and showmen. All remaining light goods vehicle
taxation classes were also abolished and vehicles in those groups transferred to the PLG class. At the same time, the basis for calculation of excise duty for goods vehicles was amended to
“revenue weight”. Revenue weight means either “confirmed maximum gross weight” as determined by plating and testing regulations, or “design weight” for vehicles not subject to plating and testing (formerly known as Restricted HGVs)."

agree Tony M : 'Light goods' relates to the 'PLG' (Private Light Goods) vehicle category which includes cars and goods vehicles up to a certain weight (cf. camionette etc.) — as distinct from HGV (= PL)

disagree Tony M : Does not at all reflect the sense of the source text, where the term is 'revenue weight', nothing to do with actual revenue.

Term needs to be claerly understood first

I have assumed (correctly?) that the text is from the UK:

The revenue weight shown on your V5 is the maximum laden weight that the vehicle may be used on the road. That's the vehicle, fuel, gas, water, clothes, food, driver, passengers etc etc.7 Dec 2008
