<p>The Home Office collects and publishes data on the number of Fixed Penalty Notices
(FPNs) issued for motoring offences in the ‘Police Powers and Procedures, England
and Wales’ statistical bulletin, which can be accessed at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/police-powers-and-procedures-england-and-wales"

However, information on the type of vehicle issued with a FPN is not collected. Data
for the 2018/19 financial year is due to be published in October 2019.</p><p>Enforcement
of road traffic law is an operational matter for the police to determine in line with
local priorities. There have been no discussions with the Mayor of London, the Metropolitan
Police or Transport for London on the enforcement of the regulations governing the
use of electric scooters.</p><p>The Future of Mobility: Urban Strategy, published
on 19 March 2019 by the Department for Transport, includes a Regulatory Review to
address the challenges of ensuring our transport infrastructure and regulations are
fit for the future. One strand of this will look at options for enabling micromobility
devices, and a consultation will be issued in due course. The Home Office will work
with Dft as proposals are developed.</p>
