    Default £3000 for foreign nationals for cars?

    whilst watching parliament live this afternoon (sad i know) this following question was put forward, (taken from parliament website)
    'Mr. Robert Goodwill (Scarborough and Whitby) (Con): Will the Minister comment on grants of up to £3,000 to purchase vehicles being made available to foreign nationals working in the UK?'. this can be found at http://www.parliament.the-stationery...mdebate/02.htm

    answer to this was

    'James Purnell: I am very happy to make inquiries into that matter. Obviously, we have a Motability scheme to support disabled people to drive. I do not think the matter the hon. Gentleman raises is one for my Department, but if he writes to me, I will be happy to look into it.

    now excuse me but whats all this about, if i had £3000 for a car it would greatly improve my chances for a job and therefore be able to reduce my debt, does anyone know anything about this? and if its ok for me to ask for this from the dwp. p.s. im not a foreign national im british, i was born and raised here, not that this should be an issue. any replys welcome please.

    I have no issue whatsoever about foreign nationals coming to this country and working, as long they contributeicon to the system by means of Income Tax and National Insurance contributions.

    However, if there is substance to this and it is as it appears to be, then it is an absolute disgrace, although does not surprise me one little bit. [edited]
    There are indeed probably many thousands of UK citizens that could benefit from such a scheme, as for the motability scheme, well has the minister in question ever tried to qualify for it.........again there are many many UK citizens who are refused this due to the non sensical rules.

    The simple rule in the UK seems to be charity most definately does not begin at home.

    It'll probably cost them £3k to get insurance, as so many are driving on the wrong side...

    That doesn't make sense, the question or the answer. What does the Motability scheme have to do with (allegedly) foreign nationals allowances? :-?

    Apologies to people who I was in the process of helping, I may be gone some time.

    Wow. Please tell me your taking the p#*s. £3000 would do me fine for a car. This would allow both my wife and i to get better jobs which are miles from where we live and the public transport is pathetic.
    Scrub that, i'm British! No chance.

    The original link has gone so ...

    House of Commons Hansard Debates for 31 Mar 2008 (pt 0004)

    It's a disgrace, if true, that whilst the cost of motoring in this country is rising at an alarming rate, foreign nationals get a car for free!
