The adoption of a zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate for new cars and vans was confirmed in the Government\u2019s Net Zero Strategy in October 2021, following a public consultation that launched in July 2021. In April 2022 we consulted on its policy design features to engage further on the future regulation, and a third and final consultation outlining our final full proposal is due to be published soon. These proposals will be subject to consultation, where the Department will take stakeholder views into consideration before bringing forward the legislation to enter into force next year.<\/p>

This will allow them to regulate rental micromobility schemes and tailor them to local priorities and considerations while still ensuring a baseline national standard of service provision. It would also include the ability to manage fleet sizes, parking\u202farrangements and access to the rental market.<\/p>"}
