Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will take steps to reduce the (a) regulatory and (b) administrative requirements placed on transport-focused charities.

The Department is committed to reducing unnecessary administrative burdens across the transport sector, both in our own work and in our engagement with other parties.

The Charities Commission (and its counterparts in Scotland and Northern Ireland) often explore ways to reduce the administrative burdens faced by charities and simplify the regulatory landscape in which they operate.

The Department is also supporting the government’s Regulatory Action Plan.
