Asked by:
Navendu Mishra (Labour)

Answer

Last June, the Secretary of State for Transport wrote to local authorities, including Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council, encouraging them to engage with the upcoming Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) Fund and the existing On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme. Officials from the Department for Transport have since met with Stockport Council to discuss LEVI, which will provide councils in England with resource and capital funding to plan and deliver local charging infrastructure.
