Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many Motability scheme users living in (a) Ceredigion Preseli constituency and (b) Wales exceeded 10,000 miles in each of the last five years.

Responsibility for the terms and administration of the Scheme sits with Motability Foundation and its Board of Governors.

Changes to the leasing package announced by Motability in March 2026 included reducing the mileage allowance from 20,000 per year to 10,000 per year, to align with industry norms. This change will only apply to new leases from 1 July 2026, existing leases will not be affected. Motability Foundation have advised that approximately 75% of customers on the Scheme already drive 10,000 miles or fewer per year.

Motability understand that this will affect customers differently are and keeping these changes under review.
