Proceeding contribution from Baroness Worthington (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 June 2018. It occurred during Debate on bill on Automated and Electric Vehicles Bill.
Automated and Electric Vehicles Bill
I am sorry to interrupt again, but could the noble Lord clarify that? The powers will be used and a consultation will be undertaken about which destinations they will apply to, but the Bill is very specific and narrow and says that it will be only large petrol retailers and service station providers. That is the point we are making: it is too narrow. It is not even what is necessary. The Minister has given a long list of private sector movement. Most service stations already have charge points. That is one place where you can find them. We are talking about a much wider, countrywide need, specifically—when we come on to the next group of amendments—a city-led, demand-led process that Clause 10 could enable but does not as drafted.
