Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to relax, suspend or repeal the zero emission vehicle mandate; and what assessment they have made of the impact of the mandate on vehicle manufacturing, investment and employment in the UK.

The Government has a long-standing commitment to publish a review of the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate to ensure we are taking a pragmatic and balanced approach to the ZEV transition that works for industry. We intend to conclude the review in the next six months. This will include a public consultation, which will set out the relevant analysis undertaken as part of the review process.
