answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2019 answer text <p>We want the transition to 2040 to be consumer and market-led, supported by the measures set out in the Road to Zero strategy. The Government’s ambition is to have one of the best infrastructure networks in the world for electric vehicles, and we want chargepoints to be accessible, reliable, affordable and secure.</p><p> </p><p>We want to encourage and leverage private sector investment to build and operate a self-sustaining public network supported by the right policy framework. Government funding and leadership, alongside private sector investment, has supported the installation of more than 20,000 public chargepoints. This includes 2,000 rapid chargepoints, one of the largest rapid networks in Europe. The Office for Low Emission Vehicles is going further and is working with industry to set out a vision by Autumn 2019, for a core infrastructure network of rapid and high powered chargepoints across England’s key road network.</p><p> </p><p>The Government’s grant schemes and the £400m public-private Charging Infrastructure Investment Fund will also see thousands more chargepoints installed across the UK. Highways England has committed £15m to ensure there is a rapid chargepoint (where possible) every 20 miles on 95% of the Strategic Road Network by 2020, and the Automated and Electric Vehicles Act gives Government powers to ensure appropriate provision of chargepoints at motorway service areas and large fuel retailers if needed.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Norfolk answering member printed George Freeman question first answered 25/10/2019 13:16:34 answering member 4020 label Biography information for George Freeman

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2019 answer text <p>The UK and EU have both put in place measures to ensure that flights can continue in any EU Exit scenario. In a no deal scenario, the EU’s adopted Regulation on connectivity gives UK airlines the right to fly to and from the EU from the day of exit until a proposed date of October 2020, allowing time to progress longer-term arrangements. The UK has stated we will reciprocate these rights for EU airlines. Both sides are committed to maintaining connectivity.</p> answering member constituency Daventry answering member printed Chris Heaton-Harris question first answered 25/10/2019 13:50:26 answering member 3977 label Biography information for Chris Heaton-Harris
