Overview

We're seeking views on providing Motor Vehicle Cover to academy trusts and local authority-maintained schools through the risk protection arrangement (RPA).

Why your views matter

The department is considering providing Motor Vehicle Cover to academy trusts and local authority-maintained schools through the risk protection arrangement (RPA) as an alternative to commercial insurance.

This public consultation exercise will gauge the level of interest in Motor Vehicle Cover and allow those with any feedback, views or concerns to express them.

Should the department still wish to proceed with the proposal after considering the consultation responses then the intention is for the proposed amendment to be included in primary legislation changes when parliamentary time allows.
