Written Answers
Petrol: Theft
Asked by: Lord Berkeley (Labour - Life peer)
Tuesday 20th January 2026

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many fuel recovery claims are made each year by operators of petrol stations in England, where a motorist has not paid for fuel.

Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill - Minister of State (Department for Transport)

Neither the Department for Transport nor the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency hold information about how many fuel recovery claims are made each year by operators of petrol stations in England, where a motorist has not paid for fuel.

East West Rail Line: Electrification
Asked by: Lord Berkeley (Labour - Life peer)
Monday 19th January 2026

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what are the comparative capital costs of including discontinuous and full electrification on East West Rail.

Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill - Minister of State (Department for Transport)

In its autumn announcement, EWR Co set out proposals for the discontinuous (partial) electrification of the line. Discontinuous electrification can enable net zero services through the use of hybrid battery-electric trains for reduced upfront capital costs compared to full route electrification. Exact costs will depend on the location and extent of electrification, and updated proposals will be provided at the next consultation on EWR later this year.
