<p>Officials for the Department for Work and Pensions meet regularly with Motability,
the charity. Senior officials attend the quarterly Board of Governors meetings and
at a working level, officials have regular discussions regarding the Motability Scheme.
These discussions cover a range of areas of interest for both the Department and Motability.
However, while the Department works closely with Motability, it is an independent
charity that is responsible for the oversight of the Scheme. Legislation currently
only allows claimants in receipt of the higher rate of DLA or the enhanced rate of
PIP mobility component to be direct transferred to Motability and therefore join the
Scheme.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
