Motability

Asked by Nick TimothyConservativeDepartment for Work and PensionsTabled Answered 31 March 2025UIN 41170

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many Motability vehicles have been taken away due to (a) lapsed eligibility and (b) misuse in each year since 2010.

Answered by Sir Stephen Timms

Whilst the Department works closely with Motability Foundation and is responsible for the disability benefits that provide a passport to the Motability Scheme, Motability Foundation is an independent charitable organisation that is wholly responsible for the terms and the administration of the Scheme, along with oversight of Motability Operations. Any questions relating to the administration of the Scheme should be directed to Motability Foundation.
