Volkswagen
(asked on 3rd June 2019) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, for what reasons the Government has not penalised VW for misleading vehicle emissions.
This question was answered on 11th June 2019
The Government continues to take the unacceptable actions of Volkswagen extremely seriously. However, given that the vast majority, if not all, of the potential wrong doing is likely to have occurred at Volkswagen AG in Germany, it is for the German Government in the first place to take action. The Department will assess the prospects of taking action in the UK, once the German investigation is complete and based on any available evidence.
