Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to their announcement on 21 February regarding new electric vehicle charging points to be installed across England, how many will be accessible for wheelchair users.

The Local EV Infrastructure Fund provides Local Authorities with funding to deliver a public chargepoint network that best suits the needs of the local area. Through the Local EV Infrastructure Support Body, the Government provides Local Authorities with expert advice to develop these projects, including guidance on accessibility.

The Government will continue to monitor whether further intervention is needed on accessibility over time.
