Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure they are prepared to implement the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035.

The introduction of the world-leading zero emission vehicle mandate will support the future supply of zero emission vehicles, by setting a minimum percentage of manufacturer’s new car and van sales to be zero emission each year from 2024.

To facilitate the transition to zero emission vehicles, the Government is also working with industry to increase the number of electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints. The Government’s Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Strategy sets out the steps being taken to support the deployment of these chargepoints across the country.
