Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 19 January 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Sustainable Local Transport.


Sustainable Local Transport

I always wait for that groan. The noble Lord talked about the school run. That is precisely an issue we want to address. I mentioned Bikeability in the Statement, which will receive £11 million a year to encourage children to take up bicycling, and to encourage adults to take it up for short journeys which would otherwise produce disproportionate emissions. The White Paper deals with precisely the issues that the noble Lord raises.
