Car Sharing: Insurance and Regulation
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of regulatory and insurance barriers facing peer-to-peer car sharing platforms in the UK on the viability of those platforms.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
I met with the car sharing sector in November to discuss challenges, opportunities, and how the Government can help create a supportive environment for car sharing services for people across the UK. As part of this, I heard about the barriers facing different kinds of car sharing services, including peer-to-peer services. My Department is actively considering the experiences shared by stakeholders along with the wider evidence base to develop appropriate measures to support the sector.
