The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what data her Department holds on the scale of ride sharing car services.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

The Department does not hold any data on the scale of ride sharing car services.

However, to help better understand the scale of usage I have commissioned officials to consider how we can support and promote the use of car club and car-sharing schemes, starting with a roundtable of industry stakeholders.
