The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 4 June 2026 to Question 4292, whether her Department has conducted formal internal assessments or economic impact analyses into the potential merits of bringing forward the scheduled 2027 review of the Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate since 4 July 2024.

Answered by Keir Mather

No. We are beginning discussions to inform a formal review of the Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate and have a long-standing commitment to publish this by early 2027. Assessment of the costs and benefits of the regulation will be made in advance of any legislative changes.
