Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what estimate his Department has made of the amount of private investment that will be leveraged in by the Government's £100 million of new Research and Development funding for the commercial deployment of connected and self-driving technologies.

The Government has allocated £100 million to the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles to create a European-leading commercial market for connected and automated mobility (CAM) in the UK by 2025, building on £400 million joint investment with industry and unlocking at least £790 million further private investment.
