The Government agrees that sustainable biofuels have a valuable role to play in reducing carbon emissions from transport, and particularly in sectors where there are limited alternatives such as aviation.<\/p>

<\/p>

We also recognise that we have world class research capabilities in the UK, and share the ambition in the Sustainable Aviation\u2019s report for the UK to become a global leader in the advanced sustainable fuels market.<\/p>

<\/p>

To that end we launched a competition on 10 December which will provide £25 million of capital funding for the construction of demonstration-scale advanced biofuel plants in the UK.<\/p>

<\/p>

We do not currently intend to revise the current policy framework (for example to make Renewable Transport Fuel Certificates available to aviation fuel suppliers) while discussions are continuing on accounting for indirect land use change under European targets. Meanwhile, we have established a Transport Energy Taskforce of experts from the aviation industry, NGOs and the fuels and automotive industry to examine options to meet our renewable energy and greenhouse gas reduction targets, and provide greater certainty to industry. The report by Sustainable Aviation provides valuable input to this work.<\/p>

The Department for Transport has not made any assessment of the savings made from the Q&A system.<\/p>

<\/p>

One of the benefits of the new system is the possibility for the reporting of the timeliness of answers to Parliamentary Questions to be delivered with greater consistency and accuracy across all answering bodies.<\/p>

It will be for the Procedure Committee to evaluate the effectiveness of the new system in improving performance when it assesses the evidence following the end of the session.<\/p>

The Department supported the following walking initiatives during financial years 2005/06 and 2009/2010: £2.5m for the Active School Travel programme between 2009/10 and 2010/11, £5m from Department of Health for cycling and walking as part of an obesity initiative in 2009/10, and £700k for the Schools \u2018Finding New Solutions\u2019 programme in 2010/11.<\/p>

<\/p>

Between 2010 and 2014, the primary source of funding for walking initiatives has been the Local Sustainable Transport Fund. The Fund is a £600m grant programme for local authorities that currently supports a range of sustainable transport projects across England. While this funding can be used for a range of transport interventions, many projects support walking either directly or as a secondary benefit (such as cycleways that can also be used by pedestrians).<\/p>

<\/p>

Due to the varied nature of the individual projects and the range of transport modes benefitting, it is not possible to place a precise figure on the amount of Local Sustainable Transport Fund grant being spent directly on walking. However, the latest annual report for this programme suggests that around 20% of the funding in 2012/13 was spent on projects that directly benefitted walkers. We can therefore assume that between financial years 2010/11 and 2014/15, approximately £120m will be spent on schemes that directly benefit walkers. This is a conservative estimate that does not consider projects where pedestrians are the secondary beneficiaries of a scheme, or projects that are 100% focussed on walking (such as Durham County Council\u2019s \u2018Walk to Schools outreach\u2019 programme, which is receiving £4.8m in funding).<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition to this, all cities in receipt of the Department\u2019s Cycling Ambition grant programme needed to demonstrate how their proposed designs would benefit walkers as well as cyclists. To support this, the Department worked with the Department of Health to make £1.2m in funding available to ensure walking is considered alongside the wider Cycling Ambition Grant programme. This funding has been shared between Birmingham, Cambridge, Leeds, Manchester and Norwich.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Local authorities are also welcome to participate in the Department\u2019s School Award Scheme, operated by Modeshift. This scheme promotes walking and cycling to schools and is benefitting from £840,000 between 2014 and 2016.<\/p>

<\/p>

The current Local Sustainable Transport Fund will end in March 2015. For 2015/16, the Department has provided £64.5m in revenue funding to support the ongoing promotion of sustainable transport, including walking. This funding has been awarded to 44 projects, one of which (led by Durham County Council) is 100% focussed on walking. Applying the same 20% logic indicated above, we can assume that approximately £13m of this funding will go on schemes that will directly benefit walkers.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition to this, all cities in receipt of the Department\u2019s Cycling Ambition grant programme needed to demonstrate how their proposed designs would benefit walkers as well as cyclists. To support this, the Department worked with the Department of Health to make £1.2m in funding available to ensure walking is considered alongside the wider Cycling Ambition Grant programme.

<\/p>

All funding is routed via local authorities, and it is their responsibility to identify any local contributions needed to deliver schemes in their area. The Department therefore does not hold information on what additional funding is available via local authorities or other sources.<\/p>

The attached table lists the makes and models of cars in the Government Car Service fleet over the past four years together with the CO2 emissions for each.<\/p>
