Ministers: Official Cars

Asked by John GlenConservativeDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 6 September 2024UIN 2306

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, which Ministers have been allocated a dedicated vehicle from the Government Car Service.

Answered by Mike Kane

The Government Car Service (GCS) offers vehicles to government departments as a shared resource. Each department independently determines the allocation of these vehicles to its ministerial cadre.

Presently, GCS has allocated 27 electric vehicles to various government departments and maintains an additional pool of electric vehicles for ad hoc requests. Due to logistical and operational considerations, these numbers are subject to regular change.
