answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government is investing nearly £1.5bn‎ between April 2015 and March 2021 in one of the most comprehensive global programmes of support for electric vehicles, with grants available for new plug in cars, vans, lorries, buses, taxis and motorcycles, and schemes to support charging point infrastructure at homes and workplaces and on residential streets.

There is a developing market for second hand electric vehicles. Used electric vehicle motorists are able to take advantage of the favourable tax regime the Government has put in place and local initiatives such as free parking, as well as the Government’s grant schemes to assist with the cost of installing chargepoints.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 29/03/2018 10:45:06 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
