Plan for Drivers<\/a>. The Plan sets out seven further actions that the Government is planning to take to support the transition to zero emission driving. This includes an intention to review the grid connections process for EV chargepoints, to consult on the expansion of street works permits to chargepoint operators, and to consult on the expansion of permitted development rights.<\/p> <\/p>
The Government will continue to monitor market developments to determine whether any significant gaps in charging infrastructure provision emerge and will consider the case for further support if required.<\/p>"}

The Government has recently laid regulations to improve the consumer experience across the public charging network. The regulations will ensure that pricing information is transparent, payment methods are simplified, charge points are reliable and public charge point data is freely available for consumers.<\/p>
<\/p>
Through these regulations, the Government will ensure that drivers can get value for money by comparing prices across different public charge points through a single format of pence per kilowatt hour, similar to pence per litre of fuel.<\/p>
<\/p>
Overall, in many cases electric vehicle drivers can benefit from savings on the cost of fuel compared to conventional combustion engines.<\/p>"}

The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) provides remote terrain training to all its staff as part of its essential health and safety training to prepare it for operations at aircraft accidents in remote locations. The course is bespoke and designed specifically to address the mitigations of hazards that staff could experience when having to access and examine wreckage in remote locations including mountainous terrain, rivers and remote lowlands/wetlands as well as providing training on field first aid.<\/p>
<\/p>
The training provision is regularly reviewed using feedback from the course and experience from accidents sites which is then used to adapt the course and any refresher training which is also provided at suitable intervals.<\/p>"}
