Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department is providing support to local authorities to help them install electric vehicle charging points in council-owned garages.

Public sector organisations, as well as social housing providers and private landlords, can apply for the EV chargepoint grant. Grants of up to £350 are available for landlords towards the cost of purchasing and installing a chargepoint, with up to 200 grants a year available per applicant. Additional support is available to help install multiple chargepoints, for example in residential car parks, with grants of up to £30,000 available.
