We want all public chargepoints to be accessible and interoperable for all electric vehicle (EV) drivers across the UK, regardless of the vehicle they are driving. All Government-funded public chargepoints must meet a minimum common standard for chargepoint connectors and sockets, and include a \u2018pay as you go\u2019 functionality.<\/p>

<\/p>

The recently introduced Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulations will ensure that all UK publicly accessible chargepoints are required to offer access to all users on an ad hoc basis without entering into a contract with the electricity supplier or operator concerned and also sets minimum standards for publicly accessible chargepoint sockets and outlets.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition, the Automated and Electric Vehicles Bill is designed to improve the accessibility and interoperability of public chargepoints further, by giving Government the powers to require chargepoint operators to ensure a standardised means of access and connection.<\/p>

The British Transport Police currently has 155 authorised firearms officers.

There is no requirement for them to possess individual firearms certificates.<\/p>

Prior to the amendment to the Act, officers were required to obtain personal firearms licences.

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) introduced the new practical driving test on 4 December 2017. The new elements of the test were trialled extensively before the launch.<\/p>

<\/p>

DVSA conducted an internal risk assessment of the new test, which did not identify any unacceptable risk. It also commissioned an independent assessment of the test from The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA). The RoSPA report concluded that all new parts of the driving test were low risk.<\/p>

<\/p>

DVSA is closely monitoring the new driving test and as of 8 January 2018, there have not been any incident reports in relation to the new test elements.<\/p>

There is no specific timescale within which the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) must respond or take action after receiving a report of a potentially unlicensed vehicle.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/strong>The DVLA has an online service for members of the public to notify possibly unlicensed vehicles. A report of notifications received via this service is sent weekly to the DVLA\u2019s national wheel clamping contractor. The licensing status of any vehicles listed in the report will be checked, and appropriate action taken if they are seen on the public road.<\/p>

<\/p>

The DVLA\u2019s database also automatically recognises when a vehicle is non-compliant and highlights this so that enforcement action can be taken. Often action is under way that may not be immediately visible to the public.<\/p>

<\/p>

The DVLA is not responsible for the removal of abandoned vehicles. Local authorities are able to do so using powers contained in the Cleaner Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2006. Alternatively, the police can remove any vehicle that is causing an obstruction, is likely to cause danger, or is broken down or abandoned without lawful authority.<\/p>
