What assessment he has made of the potential merits of establishing a dedicated Standard Industrial Code classification for public electric vehicle charging.
The information requested falls under the remit of the UK Statistics Authority. A response to the Hon gentleman’s Parliamentary Question of 25th is attached.
Whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of introducing an electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme for civil servants on the decarbonisation of the public sector.
The Civil Service has had a history of providing benefits that are attractive and value for money and that support green policies such as season ticket and bike loans to help manage travel costs as well as the Cycle to Work Scheme. As part of work on the future Civil Service Reward Strategy, a wide range of approaches and benefits are currently under consideration. Officials continue to work closely with government departments and other key stakeholders as this work develops.
What steps his Department has taken to help ensure that the Infected Blood Compensation Authority claims process is accessible to people whose historic NHS records are missing or partially redacted.
The Scheme has been designed to minimise as far as possible the burden on those applying, and as set out in the Infected Blood Compensation Scheme Regulations 2024, eligibility for the Scheme will be determined based on the balance of probabilities. The Infected Blood Compensation Authority will provide assistance to those who believe their medical records have been lost or destroyed. In addition to this, on 3 July 2025, the Permanent Secretary of the Cabinet Office wrote to the Chairs of the PAC and PACAC Committees to set out the measures being taken to prioritise faster compensation payments, and one of these measures is to use the powers in the Victims and Prisoners Act to get records from the Infected Blood Inquiry, and using testimony to contribute to the assessment of proof of infection.
What steps his Department is taking to ensure that (a) consent for data sharing and (b) other privacy rights are upheld in the implementation of future digital identity card systems.
Inclusion, usefulness, and security are the principles guiding the new digital ID. The digital ID will draw on the best practice of cyber security from around the world and we have begun engagement with the UK’s leading security experts—including the National Cyber Security Centre. The digital ID programme will respect all existing UK laws, including GDPR, so that any data sharing is necessary for the purposes of the activity and only the minimum amount of data is shared. We will launch a full public consultation on all these proposals in the new year.
