Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make it her policy to expand the terms of reference of the Cost of public EV charging review, published on 9 June 2026, to include VAT levied on public EV charging.

While tax costs will be reflected within the review, recommendations on tax policy are out of scope. This is consistent with other such reviews which avoid pre-empting fiscal events, where decisions on tax can be made in the round, taking into account the wider economic and fiscal context.
