§ Mr. VazTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what information he has as to how many local authorities have active cyclists' consultative committees; if he will list them; and if he will make a further statement.
§ Mr. AtkinsThis information is not collected centrally. A number of local authorities are known to have developed good working relationships with local cycling groups.
Our latest local transport note on cycling "Making Way for Cyclists" (published by HMSO) contains several references to the benefits of good consultation with local cycling interests. A copy has been placed in the Library.
