The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether her Department has made an assessment of the potential merits of procuring used vehicles for the Motability Scheme.

Whilst the Department for Work and Pensions works closely with Motability, the Motability Scheme is overseen by Motability Foundation (the charity) and delivered by Motability Operations. Motability is independent of Government and is wholly responsible for the terms and administration of the Scheme.
