Proceeding contribution from Ed Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 July 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UK Low Carbon Transition Plan.


UK Low Carbon Transition Plan

I am glad that my hon. Friend raises that point, because there are proposals in the low-carbon industrial strategy about how Government can work better on electric vehicles. I believe that an office is being set up to tackle the matter in the Department of my right hon. Friend the Minister for Business, Innovation and Skills. We need to bring together the incentives, the charging infrastructure and the huge opportunities in the UK for the production of such vehicles.
