The Department does not currently collect specific data on collisions or injuries involving e-bikes operated through hire schemes.

We will consult comprehensively on all aspects of licensing for shared cycle schemes, including potential data-sharing requirements in due course.

We will then implement licensing through a combination of regulations and guidance.
