HC Deb 13 June 2000 vol 351 c542W
22. Mr. Clifton-Brown

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a statement on the progress of the Government's traffic reduction policy. [124011]

Mr. Hill

As we set out in "Tackling Congestion and Pollution", published in January, our policies focus on improving the outcomes that matter to people, such as congestion, pollution and road safety, rather than national traffic volume figures. The Transport Bill currently before Parliament, and the 10-year plan we will be publishing this summer, demonstrate our commitment to put in place the policies and resources that are needed.
