HC Deb 25 March 1983 vol 39 c512W
Mr. Stuart Holland

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he has made any assessment of the effects on health of cycling.

Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

I am not aware of any specific assessment of the effects of cycling on health, but I am advised that cycling combines exercise, fresh air and relaxation, all of which have been found to be beneficial to health. If the hon. Member has any specific information on the subject, I hope he will write to me.
