	question text	To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 11 June to Question 150632 on Motor Vehicles: Hydrogen, whether the difference between his Government’s allocation of £30 million for hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle refuelling and £200 million for battery electric vehicle charging infrastructure in the Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund reflects a departmental preference on future transport choices.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/06/2018 answer text The government’s approach to future transport choices is technology neutral and we seek to encourage different forms of technology wherever available. Hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) are zero emission vehicles and have the potential to play a significant role, alongside battery electric vehicles, in improving air quality and decarbonising road transport. The development and deployment of FCEVs is at an earlier stage than for battery electric vehicles, and policy measures reflect differing levels of market maturity. answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 15/06/2018 09:38:39 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
