The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of introducing a public information campaign to tackle common misinformation on electric vehicle ownership and charging.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

Government is committed to accelerating the transition to zero emission vehicles and increasing awareness of the benefits of electric vehicle ownership. We are working closely with the electric vehicle sector and key partners to ensure that we are delivering consistent and clear information to drivers about making the switch to electric vehicles and charging infrastructure. Combating misinformation is a key part of this, and we continue to assess how we can do this most effectively.
