Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what financial support she intends to provide for the installation of chargers in police car parks as police car fleets are electrified.

Decisions around the procurement and deployment of electric vehicles, as well as infrastructure to support them, is a matter for operationally independent Chief Constables and Police and Crime Commissioners, or Mayoral equivalents.

We would expect decisions to be made with consideration to the needs of the force, their local community, and within their existing budget allocation.
