Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many public chargepoints she expects to benefit from the £100 million charging support scheme announced at Budget 2026; and how many drivers she expects to benefit.

The £100 million funding is intended to reduce charging costs for drivers using lower powered local chargers, typically found on residential streets. These currently make up around a third of the charging network. Full details including eligibility will be provided in due course.
