Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of introducing an electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme for civil servants on the decarbonisation of the public sector.

The Civil Service has had a history of providing benefits that are attractive and value for money and that support green policies such as season ticket and bike loans to help manage travel costs as well as the Cycle to Work Scheme.

As part of work on the future Civil Service Reward Strategy, a wide range of approaches and benefits are currently under consideration.

Officials continue to work closely with government departments and other key stakeholders as this work develops.
