Default Motorglider hours same as glider?

I understand you can use glider hours towards a private pilot license, but can you use motor glider hours toward a glider pilot license?


As an aside which is probably not relevant to most of you, in the UK I fly both TMG (fixed prop) and SLMG (folding prop) using the privileges of an aeroplane PPL. Time in the SLMG is disregarded in considering currency rules for revalidating my PPL, but time in a TMG does count.

Under new rules (EASA) I will have the option of flying motor gliders using a Sailplane Pilots License - for an SLMG it will just be treated as a different launch type.
