answer text <p>The Government’s statutory Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, published in April 2017, set out that £1.2 billion of funding would be available to be invested in measures to increase cycling and walking in England over the period to 2021. The estimated contributions from local authorities and local enterprise partnerships of funding allocated from central government funds during this period are detailed in the table below. No estimate has been made of the total contribution of locally generated funds from local authorities.</p><p> </p><p>Since publication of the Strategy, additional funding streams have been made available to local authorities including the £1.7 billion Transforming Cities Fund, £220 million through the Clean Air Fund and £5 billion through the Housing Infrastructure Fund. The bidding processes for these new funds are still underway so allocations to cycling and walking are not yet known.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>LA/LEP contributions </strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Amount (£m)</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Local Growth Fund</p></td><td><p>476.4<sup>1</sup> (597)<sup>2</sup></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Cycle Ambition Cities</p></td><td><p>101</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Access Fund</p></td><td><p>80</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Integrated Transport Block</p></td><td><p>193.5<sup>3</sup></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Highways Maintenance Fund</p></td><td><p>196<sup>4</sup></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p><sup> </sup></p><p>Note: table does not include central Government funding provided directly to Highways England and for the Bikeability programme.</p><p> </p><p><sup>1</sup>Based on figures provided by Local Enterprise Partnerships to the Department in Jan 2016. <sup>2</sup>Revised figure including final round of Local Growth Fund based on figures provided by Local Enterprise Partnerships to the Department in spring 2018. <sup>3</sup>Based on previous trends. <sup>4</sup>Based on 9% formula weighting.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>The Department for Transport has not undertaken any comparative assessment of the value for money for allocating funds for electrically assisted pedal cycles, electric cars and vans. However, at September’s Zero Emission Vehicle Summit the Prime Minister announced a £2 million funding programme to support the uptake of e-cargo bikes.

answer text <p>There have been no specific discussions with the CAA on the implementation of Class E airspace in UK. In accordance with the Air Navigation Directions 2017, the policy on the classification of airspace and its implementation lies with the independent airspace regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority.</p><p> </p><p>However, as The Government continues to modernise our airspace, it needs to be mindful of longer term changes that will have an impact on wider airspace management. This includes the increasing need to enable the safe integration, rather than segregation, of all aircraft. This is why, as part of the Aviation Strategy, The Department is working with the CAA to explore a new policy on mandating electronic identification for all users.</p> more like this
