[Nando's, Pret A Manger and McDonald's are among firms
to promise reductions after the chancellor ordered a
temporary VAT cut from 20% to 5%.

The Treasury estimates households could
save £160 a year on average,
but not all firms will pass on the benefit.]

[Fast food chain KFC said it would reduce the
price of sharing buckets by £1 and slash the
cost of certain "fan favourites" by 50p.
McDonald's also said it had recommended
that its franchisees cut prices on an
array of products, including popular lines such
as the Big Mac and Quarter Pounder.
There will also be price cuts on coffee.
In the UK, the vast majority of the 1,350
McDonald's outlets are owned and operated
by individual business men and women,
with each franchisee running an
average of six restaurants each.]
