	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/03/2020 answer text <p>The Budget 2020 commitments are an integral part of our strategy for decarbonising road transport. The commitments are a key part of a package of measures that will enable a mass transition to zero emission vehicles and see the carbon emissions from road transport reduce between now and 2050. The benefits of this funding from a climate change perspective go considerably further than the direct emissions savings generated by the resulting higher short-term uptake of zero emission vehicles.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Vere of Norbiton question first answered 25/03/2020 15:47:36 answering member 4580 label Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton

We will continue to press for the introduction of RDE at the earliest opportunity.</p><br /> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 30/10/2015 09:25:01 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/11/2015 answer text <p>In July this year, Defra prepared a voting brief for British MEPs concerning the revised National Emission Ceilings Directive. This advised MEPs to oppose an amendment which included the introduction of spot checks on vehicle emissions under real operating conditions, because the aim of the amendment and how it related to existing regimes was unclear. The Government supports the implementation of real driving emissions testing for vehicles but strongly believes that this should be addressed in the appropriate legislation to ensure clarity.</p> answering member printed Lord Gardiner of Kimble question first answered 02/11/2015 14:54:42 answering member 4161 label Biography information for Lord Gardiner of Kimble
