§ Mr. BurstowTo ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what involvement fleet managers have had in drawing up his Department's Green Transport Plan. [77965]
§ Mr. Chris Smith[holding answer 22 March 1999]The Department does not employ a dedicated fleet manager. The core Department leases no vehicles itself, but contracts with the Government Car and Despatch Agency (GCDA) for cars for Ministers and senior officials. The Royal Parks Agency leases its vehicles but manages them through an overall contract manager, who is currently reviewing the contract to include further green transport requirements.
