Dear Transport Department,
We are students from Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) taking the course GCAP3226: Empowering Citizens through Data: Participatory Policy Analysis for Hong Kong. As part of our coursework, we are requesting specific administrative data records under the Code on Access to Information:

1. Form TD22 Propulsion Data:
According to the official vehicle registration form (Form TD22, available at: https://www.td.gov.hk/filemanager/common...
- How many vehicles registered or processed through Form TD22 have indicated their propulsion type as electric (EV)?
- Can the Department provide a statistical breakdown of the propulsion types collected via this form?

2. Collected Data Fields:
What specific data fields and variables does the Department collect and store alongside propulsion type regarding private electric cars (e.g., registered address, district, make/model, battery capacity, rated power output in kW, and registration date)?

3. Database Management Systems:
What specific database systems, data management platforms, or software architectures are utilized to store and process the records collected via Form TD22 and vehicle registration databases?

4. District-Level Data and Availability:
- Does the Department maintain internal records or databases that aggregate registered EVs (by propulsion type) according to the 18 District Council districts or Tertiary Planning Units (TPUs)?
- If so, can anonymized or aggregated summaries of these regional EV counts be provided for our student project?

If any part of this application involves administrative processing fees, please inform us of the estimated cost beforehand. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Yours faithfully,

Ting Hoi Lam
