The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will take steps to provide support to public sector workers to access electric vehicles.

Answered by Keir Mather

It is for individual public sector employers to manage compensation and benefits for employees. The Government is supporting the uptake of electric vehicles through schemes such as salary sacrifice, and the £2 billion Electric Car Grant, which has supported over 50,000 drivers to choose an electric vehicle since July 2025.
