Motorcycles: Motor Insurance

Asked by Mr Richard HoldenConservativeDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 17 February 2026UIN 111860

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether the Motor Insurance Taskforce examined motorcycle insurance as part of its work leading to the Final Report published on 10 December 2025.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

The taskforce was given a strategic remit to set the direction for government policy, in order to identify short- and long-term actions that may stabilise or reduce motor insurance premiums, but not the cost of motorcycle insurance specifically. The scope of the taskforce was agreed by ministers at the Department for Transport and HM Treasury, as the co-chairing departments.
