    Have you got evidence to say salary sacrifice schemes don’t wash their faces financially? I would suggest that they do (or they wouldn’t exist). Yes they are government supported however individuals involved contribute significantly more.

    Isn’t Motability completely government funded?

    No Motability isn’t completely funded by the government.
    Motability Operations is a not-for-profit private limited company.
    Motability Foundation is a charitable organisation.

    Motability Operations supply fleet vehicles, where the monthly lease is paid for by the mobility part of the persons disability benefit, paid for by the DWP, thus the government.
    Advanced Payments are privately funded by the individual or the Motability Foundation.

    Motability Operations profits are put back into Motability Operations and the Foundation.

    The Motability Foundation is responsible for providing grants to help with APs.

    So the government does not own Motability, run the scheme, set car prices or directly fund vehicles.

    Hence, why I brought up months ago, if you let the government control what Motability Operations LTD can do. Then that sets the president that the government can overreach into the running of other private companies. So what’s stopping them with interfering with the company car schemes?

    I have ASD and thus have difficulty with social and understanding information, written and verbal. I process information in logical blocks, before I reply. Sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong.
    I also have a corneal visual condition, which makes me visually impaired without daytime, or daytime bulbs, among other disabilities/conditions.
