HC Deb 31 October 2000 vol 355 cc436-7W
Mr. Blizzard

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many fixed penalty fines have been issued for cycling on the footway since they were introduced. [134522]

Mr. Mike O'Brien

There were 665 substantive fixed penalties notices known to have been issued in the period 1 August to 31 December 1999 for the office of cycling on the footway (pavement).

Two police force areas were unable to provide this information and a further three were able to provide data for only the later months of the year.

Similar information for 2000 should be available in the spring of 2001.
