Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 20 October 2021 to Question 56446 on Electric Vehicles: Charging Points, what estimate he has made of the potential cost of extending the 5 per cent VAT rate applied to charging electric vehicles at home to all electric vehicle charging points in public places.

The requested information is not available. HMRC does not hold information on VAT revenue from specific products or services because businesses are not required to provide figures at a product level on their VAT returns as this would impose an excessive administrative burden.
