The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how her Department is ensuring that peer-to-peer car sharing remains part of the UK’s wider strategy for decarbonisation and reducing congestion.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

The Government understands the value of shared transport, including car sharing schemes, to reduce emissions and congestion, improve air quality and supports efforts to make it available to more people in the UK.

The Department is actively considering the experiences shared by stakeholders along with the wider evidence base to develop appropriate measures to support the sector.
