Government Departments: Official Cars

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 14 January 2025 to Question HL3879 on Ministers’ Private Offices: Official Cars, what criteria his Department uses to determine whether departmental officials may have use of a car from the Government Car Service.

Answer

The Government Car Service (GCS) does not determine the allocation of vehicles to senior officials - this is carried out by individual Departmental Private Offices. The arrangements relating to the use of vehicles from the Government Car Service are set out in the Civil Service Management Code. There has been no change in this policy since 2023.
