View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 92 and 93 together.
As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to Active Travel. Funding is administered through the National Transport Authority (NTA), who, in partnership with local authorities, have responsibility for the selection and development of specific projects in each local authority area.
Noting the role of the NTA in the matter, I have referred your question to that agency for a more detailed answer in relation to specific funding for Active Travel. If you do not receive a reply within 10 working days, please contact my private office.
