Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV’s) Industry Working Group (IWG) aims to strengthen collaboration between CCAV and the automated vehicle (AV) industry to support the development and implementation of the regulatory framework.
The IWG had its inaugural meeting in February 2025 and will have regular meetings throughout the lifetime of the AV Act Implementation Programme. The IWG forms part of CCAV’s stakeholder engagement across industry, academia and the public.
The core members of the IWG include trade bodies techUK and The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders Ltd, as well as AV industry representatives from Wayve, Waymo, Oxa, Bosch, Aurrigo, Ocado, and Nissan.
The membership of the IWG is kept under review and other government representatives such as delivery agencies or local government may join meetings depending on the agenda.
