7. What has been the annual cost of these grey fleet repayment claims for each of the past three years?
8. What is the pence-per-mile rate that each of these ‘grey fleet’ drivers can reclaim for their business mileage? Can you show the annual lump sum separately if there is one.
9. What action if any is the authority/department taking to reduce these payments?
10. Does the authority/department check a) driving licences b) business insurance c) mots/servicing for its grey fleet vehicles? If so how often?

The request also included questions made under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 for the following:

  1. What are the annual CO2 emissions from your fleet and then the average CO2 emissions per car (CO2 g/km)?
  2. Is there a CO2 emissions cap on your cars - if so what is it (g/km)?
  3. What is the authority/department’s overall CO2 reduction target?
  4. What is the estimated annual CO2 emission from your grey fleet?
  5. What if any control does the authority/department have to reduce CO2emissions from its ‘grey fleet’?
