answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2023 answer text <p>This Government has done more than any other to support walking and cycling and over the course of this Parliament it will be investing around £3 billion in active travel from a wide range of funding streams.</p><p> </p><p>The Government’s Carbon Budget Delivery Plan sets out the projected emission savings from transport policies. The Department will continue to monitor the contributions made by its investment in active travel. As captured in the Carbon Budget Delivery Plan, the carbon savings from active travel make up a relatively small percentage of the total projected carbon savings. The impact of recent active travel funding changes on the ability of the Government to meet its overall emission targets is therefore likely to be small.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 24/07/2023 07:38:54 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
