As the Deputy will be aware the Cycle to Work Scheme is a matter for my colleague the Minister for Finance.

At the current time there is no basis to provide for e-scooters as a means of transport. My colleague the Minister for Transport is currently advancing the Road Traffic and Roads Bill which includes provision for measures to provide for the legal use of powered personal transporters, including e-scooters.
