In the final non-round-table episode of the season, we look at the new government and what they can do.

With each guest this season I've asked them the same question "With the change in government what can the new government do to increase the uptake of EVs?"

I've collated all the answers and summarised the key themes. What I've also done is asked Matt Adams from the REA to comment on the likelihood of things happening and to discuss what the REA are currently doing in the governmental realm.
