answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/03/2019 answer text <p>The Government’s National Planning Policy Framework, published in February 2019, contains guidance for planning authorities on matters including promoting cycling and walking. The guidance applies equally to rural and urban areas. It states that planning policies should provide for high quality walking and cycling networks, drawing on Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans (LCWIPs). The Department for Transport is currently supporting 46 local authorities to develop their LCWIPs. These include both urban and rural local authorities.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 12/03/2019 14:40:59 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

house id	2
legislature	25277 pref label House of Lords
question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they have had any discussions with Heathrow Airport about the amount they charge customers for use of their electric vehicle charging points; and what assessment they have made of the application of the Automated and Electric Vehicles Act 2018 to the airport to limit such costs and to ensure that their charging points are maintained in a usable condition.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/03/2019 answer text <p>We have regular conversations with Heathrow about how it can improve the sustainability of the airport, including its support for electric vehicles, but have not discussed its chargepoint pricing model.</p><p> </p><p>Pricing is a matter for chargepoint network operators, but we are clear that we do not want to see prohibitive pricing of public chargepoints become a barrier to the uptake of electric vehicles. We want to see a self-sustaining electric vehicle chargepoint network that is affordable, reliable and accessible and will continue to monitor this as the market develops.</p><p> </p><p>The Automated and Electric Vehicles Act provides the Government with powers to require the installation of chargepoints at large fuel retailers and motorway services areas, if needed, and to set chargepoint maintenance and reliability standards. We will consider intervening using these powers if the market fails to deliver improvements.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 12/03/2019 13:09:46 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg
