Hester Veltman-Kamp (born 13 November 1973) is a Dutch politician from the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy who was elected to the Dutch Parliament in the 2023 Dutch general election.[1]
She serves as the VVD's spokesperson for roads, public transport, and environment (formerly also juvenile delinquency, human trafficking, prostitution, and gambling).[2] Responding to nuisance by electric fatbikes, she introduced a motion with Olger van Dijk (NSC) to set a minimum driving age of 14 and to require helmets. Minister Barry Madlener advised against the motion, arguing that fatbikes are too similar to other electric bikes for separate regulations.[3]
